Isabella Sophia has arrived!




Dear Friends and Family -

Isabella Sophia arrived on Tuesday, September 22 at 2:25 p.m. via c-section. Both mom and baby are healthy and are now home recuperating and trying to rest.

She weighed in at 6 lbs. 14 oz. and was 49 cm long (probably around 19 inches). She has dark hair like her daddy and light skin like her mommy. She's sleeping and eating well and doing all the other things new born babies should do (which really isn't much!).

Nathan likes to touch her feet and then giggle. At first, he cried when he saw mommy and Isabella, but now he's enjoying the novelty of having a baby in the house (for the most part!). He's going to be a good big brother. Santi has some time off from the office and is a great help in taking care of all of us!

We are very grateful to have a healthy baby girl and feel very blessed. We thank you for your prayers, words of encouragement and notes during this time. . . . we still need to take the time to read through all of them, but we do appreciate them. We apologize for not posting the news earlier but we weren't able to connect to the wireless at the hospital!

Feeling very blessed -
The Arteaga Family

She's beautiful! Congratulations! (I love her earrings!) What a little lady. I'm glad Santi has time off to spend time with y'all and enjoy your little family. Make sure you get enough rest! (I know it's easier said than done, but try!) Blessings. Bob and Barb
