She's a doll. She has such chubby cheeks! I'm thinking she looks a lot like a Helm! I think she looks like Beckham! Her eyes are so big! Congrats! I'll never have an after birth pic that can compare with yours! HAHAHA So, I'm not even going to try!

Mandi said...

Oh my cuteness!! You finally have your girl! Can't wait to see her!

Robyn said...

I agree, she totally looks like a Helm. You'll have to post a picture of Beckham so we can compare. Thanks for posting pictures - she is darling. All accessorized already :) You look amazing Jess! Congrats!

So cute.....Can't wait to meet her. She is a tiny feminine version of Beck. Look at all that hair and accessorized out of the womb. Love it!

Heather said...

So beautiful! Thanks for posting pics. I hope to sneak over there tomorrow to meet her.

Becky said...

She is perfect! I can't wait to meet her. And what the freak Jess, did you have hair and make-up in that delivery room? You look amazing!

Call me when you have 5 seconds, or even when you don't.

XOXOXOXOXO

She is a lot cuter in person. Those aren't the best pictures of Rub....
But you look great, Jess.

Holly said...

Oh how I wish I could be there to hold her! Congratulations--both she and you look fabulous (and I'm quite impressed that you already have a bow in her hair!)

Cheri said...
