He's here!!
Text message to our family thread from Grace at 11:32 pm on October 10th (Thursday):
Our second amazing, amazing little boy is earth-side! Meet Leo Palmer Nixon Peterson — born 10/10/2024 at 9:08pm, weighing 9 pounds 1 ounce, 22” long. He has a perfectly round little moon face and is so magically sweet. 😍
Named in honor of his extraordinary Auntie Leah. They are *very* nearly birthday buddies and we’ve prayed throughout this whole pregnancy that he shares her same spirit of resilience, grit, appreciation for everyday miracles and beauty, humor amidst life’s ups and downs. 🫶🏼
A note from Leah:
Welcome to our family baby Leo! I'm so grateful and relieved the delivery went well!
Grace kept the name a strict secret for the whole pregnancy, referring to him only as "Jelly Bean." So my family and I prayed for "Jelly Bean" every night in our evening prayers.
I just found out that they named him after ME. 😭
Hi due date was October 10, and my birthday is October 11. Grace said she hopes that he takes on my good qualities. (Hopefully not the bad ones!)
I loved him already, but knowing that Grace and Bobby named him after me... well, let's just say there will forever be a special place in my heart for baby Leo.
I hope he and Everett grow up as close as Grace and I are. They're only 15 months apart, and it is going to be the CUTEST to see them interact and grow up together. 😍
Send your love and well wishes!
I'll basically be running Tiny and Snail on my own for the next few months (minus Carolyn and team who do an amazing job packaging your orders!) -- please be patient with me getting back to emails. 😅 Our last collection of the year will still launch on October 25th (so check your email next week for a sneak peek! I think you will love these cards!)
Grateful *you* are in our world too. ❤️✨
Need a good baby card? Here's some options we have for babies and moms:
