$\"\"$ <\/a>Jennifer and Lily are both doing great. <\/p>\n

Jennifer was a super trooper during this labor! And now she’s resting comfortably and just absolutely amazed me with how strong and incredible she was during the labor. <\/p>\n

And I just made the coolest discovery. Lily has the most crooked pinkies of all our kids. That’s a trait from my mom’s side of the family. <\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a>Some people have asked about her name, and I have to thanks Jennifer for going with Lily. <\/p>\n

Lily M. Gyldenvand was my great aunt and a tremendous influence on me when I was a kid. Painting, writing, drawing, speaking about faith – that’s what Aunt Lil did her whole life. Google her name and you’ll find references to books she wrote decades ago. <\/p>\n

She died more than 15 years ago of Alzheimer’s, and as soon as we learned we’d have a daughter, I wanted to call her Lily. Grace (her middle name) is a tribute of sorts to our Blessed Mother, who the angel Gabriel called “Full of grace”. For all the Hail Mary’s we’ve prayed, it seemed appropriate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
