Introducing Joy Isabella!!



Joy Isabella Cassidy
January 20, 2011

Hi! It has been so long since we have updated our blog. Nick and I have some exciting news to report since we have last checked in here. We welcomed our first child, Joy Isabella, on January 20, 2011. At 6 lbs, 11 oz and 20 inches long she is pure perfection!


Joy was born at Emory Johns Creek Hospital here in Georgia. Although her official due date was February 1st, she couldn't wait to make her debut into this wonderful world. We arrived at the hospital a little after noon and she was born at 7:46 p.m. The labor and delivery went smoothly and before we knew it we were holding our precious new family member.

The first month has flown by! We were fortunate to have some Michigan visitors. My mom and Nick's parents were down to welcome Joy and experience her first days. Erin and Dane were down visiting a little over a week ago. We will be up in Michigan the first week of April to introduce her to everyone else. We are also still accepting visitors here in Georgia. :)

Joy Isabella grows and changes every day. She is getting stronger and has much more head control. We love watching her smile and listening to her coo and "talk." She loves music, movement, and bath time. Mommy and Daddy are loving every second with their little girl.

We feel so blessed and thank God for this amazing gift.

Please check back for updates and pictures.

Love,
Nick, AJ, and Joy Isabella
