Scarlett Isabel Arrives!

We are thrilled to share that Baby King is a GIRL! Scarlett Isabel finally arrived on Sunday, May 2nd at 10:47 a.m, 9 days overdue and after 2.5 days of induced labor and 3 hours of pushing! She weighed in at 8 lbs 6 oz and is 21 inches long. Not only is she a big girl, but she has big cheeks (could store food for the winter in there!), big blue eyes, and a BIG personality! She sat nameless for 24 hours since we were convinced she was a boy, but the name "Scarlett" definitely suits this little lady.

We arrived home this morning after 4 nights in the hospital and are happy to share that we are settling in wonderfully. Scarlett loves to eat, be held, and be rocked in her swing. She hasn't quite mastered the love for sleep yet, but we are working on that :)

Thanks so much for all the calls, emails, texts, and visits! We are loving getting to know Scarlett and can't wait to share her with all of you!





Scarlett "Sweet Cheeks" King

Lots of Love,
E, J, S, & H
