life with a baby girl

It was a very special Sunday last weekend. ECCAK (Evangelical Covenant Church of Alaska) held their annual conference at ACC. During the worship service on Sunday, our good friend and campus pastor, Curtis Ivanoff (currently on sabattical at North Park Theological Seminary), dedicated Wesley and Laurel to the Lord.

An ACC student holds Laurel. All of the girls love to hold babies. This student crocheted Laurel's hat.

Laurel is wearing a native "atikluq" in the next two pictures...

Snowmachining a day after Laurel was due...2 days before birth

The day after Laurel was due, we decided maybe a little ride would get things moving along. So, Meghan and I set out on a crazy snowmachine ride! No, we took it quite slow but perhaps it helped as she was born a couple mornings later:) FYI: Lower 48=snowmobiles; AK=snowmachines
