Naomi Lee!


Our third precious daughter, Naomi Lee, made her appearance last Wednesday night. She is no April Fool, and we are all absolutely smitten with her.
24 minutes young!!

Naomi is named after a combination of Nana Nancy Lee, Grandma Debby Lee, great-grandmother Elisabeth "Omi" ("grandmother" in German), and the biblical Naomi. After hearing a particularly touching homily about the story of Naomi and Ruth at our wonderful friends' Beth and Dan's San Francisco wedding in 2018, Kurt leaned over to me and said, "I would name our next girl "Naomi." [I had sleeping 5-week-old Rose on my chest throughout that mass!]

So, here she is. She is ready to rock the name that speaks to the intergenerational friendship and support amongst women.

Who rule the world?

GIRLS.
And here's a smattering of photos-- our family loving on our littlest member and embracing this unprecedented time of physical distancing. I pray that sweet Naomi-- and other babes born at this time-- bring HOPE and JOY to you during this period of fear, isolation, and despair.

Sleeping cherub.

Loving this girl so much!

Fierce!!! Protesting her first bath.

Daddy is super smitten with his third little lady.
Pure JOY on Mama's face as Naomi virtually meets family! All of our parents and siblings joined us at the hospital when June and Rose were born, so this is a new experience. We so look forward to the day that Naomi can snuggle up to all of our beloved family members and friends!

A little bundle!  
Love at first sight!



We are so lucky to have this daddy!

June's tender little hand here melts my heart!

June requests to hold the "Little Fella" approximately every 42 minutes.

Big sister, Rose, has been planting her kisses all over Naomi's little face.
Even though Naomi is the new obsession, Junie's still got time for her Daddy.
This is my favorite!! Rosie doing "beep, beep" on Naomi's nose! And little Junie B-- happy as a clam!
Perched. Peppa Pig is helping June stay very still for this photo-op.
So ridiculous. Haha... June says it looks like a towel on her head. #truth
Biggy girls briefly joining little sis for a nap.
Mama's little helper!
Yes, that is a pile of baby powder on the ottoman. June dumped it and exclaimed, "Wow!! A lot of white!!"

The biggest ladies-- making Mama and Daddy so proud!
