Living Up to the Title

The McCormick Family.  This nomenclature eludes to multiples...more than just two.  If it were only two, it would be aptly entitled The McCormick Couple.  For this is more direct, clear.  However, the title of this blog specifically states "family."  And fortunately, now we are a family.

On April 12, 2012, Elizabeth gave birth to out darling daughter at 3:23pm.  Eva Rives McCormick weighed in at 7 lbs 13 oz, 20.5 inches long.  She was sticky and icky and beautiful.  Birth, for me the dad, was simultaneously the grossest and most awesome thing I have ever seen.  It was something else, to the point where words kind of escape me.

It's been 17 days since she was born, and we are tired and confused and lost.  But mostly we are in love, in awe, excited, in wonder, and very happy to have such a precious daughter.  She is doing really well, eating lots and sleeping less and less.  She's pretty precious.

But enough words, now some pics.
