Mommy and Ula savor a cuddle on her birthday.

Saoirse meets her baby sister. Her first words are "Oh Mommy! I LOVE her!!" (We'll remind her of that later...)

I could just stare at this one all day, but happily, I get to stare at the real thing instead.

It's a girl!

Introducing Ula Lockwood Hooper

Dear Friends and Family,

Ula Lockwood Hooper was born at home at 12:40 am on Wednesday, March 7th. She is the first birth in West Fulton since 1961. Many of you have requested photos, so here are a few for you to see. We're still a bit frowsy from all the excitement, so please bear with our haggard appearances!

Much love to all of you,
Bob, Shannon, Saoirse and Ula
