GRACEE GARRETT!!

IT's a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

7lbs 11 oz,

March 30th, 2006

I sit here thinking of the Hell that I have been through in the last 9 months. I remember coming to the birth announcements section and crying wondering if I could make it through HG. For any of you who are having a rough time please look at the pictures below and know that it is an incredible journey that ends in total love!

How'd you teach her to wink at the camera?

Congratulations. She's beautiful and you've certainly earned her.
