Phoebe Jane


This beautiful baby girl is Phoebe-Jane Elizabeth Allred. A big name for a teeny-tiny, itsty-bitsy girl.


My sister Randi, 4 Boy Mama as she is otherwise known, gave birth to this delightful pink bundle of feminine characteristics May 14th at 4:44 am. Barely 6 pounds, 18 inches long, she came out howling and woke up her startled brothers.
They were startled not only to be awoken at 4:44am, but more specifically to be awoken by a GIRL! They were all pulling for boy number 5, but they quickly got over the shock and welcomed Phoebe Jane.
Now if only Chad could get over the shock!
Welcome sweet baby! You help us all remember what this life is all about: Children, family, siblings, the beauty and miralle of God's created order that just keeps on creating. Praise His name for this beautiful addition to our family. (We're up to 10 now between Randi and I! Add Cousin Stacie and we make 14! We need a bus. And to win the lottery.)
