Sophia Joy Koons

We're pleased to welcome "New Baby" (as she's been affectionately known for the last 8 months) into this world, born on 1/21/2010 at 12:11 p.m., weighing in at 8 lbs. 10 oz., and standing (ok...laying) 20.5 in. tall. And after 33 hours (and one coin toss), she finally has a name...Sophia Joy Koons. She's beautiful (of course) and has a nice set of lungs, which I'm sure she'll need to get a word in edgewise in this loquacious family of females. As you can see from the pictures, the older girls adore her...especially Clara, who proudly announced tonight (perhaps with some relief) that "I'm not the littlest anymore!" She's already stolen her daddy's heart. Without further ado, the pictures:

Hurray! I saw on FB that the baby came, and was getting antsy to know her name! Worth the wait -- very lovely name. (I even dreamed I talked to Kevin and found out the name. My guess was Rebekah Faith.)

You look lovely, Amy. And I love the picture of Clara. Congratulations on your third little girl!
