Faces

It's been fun watching Ari's various faces over the past few days since being home. She is so tiny, but is full of expression and curiosity! Often after eating, she'll silently look around and stare at us with those big, dark blue eyes! She yawns, smiles, sneezes, sleeps and grabs onto our fingers with her tiny hands. What a fun and beautiful baby!

Conversations about our daughter...


Jenny: Look at how the marks on her face are almost gone; she's a fast healer.
Dan: Yeah, she's like Wolverine.


(Yes, the Xmen character has a superpower where his skin and wounds heal themselves rapidly).

Happy Birthday, from Ari

"Wish you could be here, Grandma! I'm glad we share the same birthday week! I look forward to many more birthday seasons together! I send you many newborn cuddles and kisses."

Love,
Ari

Ari Taylor

Whew, what a night. After being induced Tuesday afternoon, we finally delivered on Friday morning! Ari Taylor Haller was born at 3:05 am on January 1st, 2010. (01-01-10...cool, huh?) Ari was the first baby born in Huntersville, and almost in Charlotte, too!

She weighs 6 lbs, 15 oz. and is 20 inches long. She has a little mouth, perfect little nose, and a Haller sleeping habit (all the time...at least for now!) We know everyone just wants to see pictures, so here they are
