Avery Leanne Lucas



I love being an aunt, and I'm excited that my newest niece is so close in age to my girls. While they were supposed to be 4 months apart, Macy and Avery are only 5 weeks apart. Abby was diagnosed with severe preeclampsia and had to deliver this precious baby girl at only 26 weeks gestation. She is doing fabulously well in the NICU at DeVos Childrens' Hospital, and I'm confident that some day Avery and Macy will be great friends. Today Avery weighs 1 pound 7 ounces and is just 10 inches long, while Macy is weighing in at over 10 pounds. In time, though, I doubt anybody will ever be able to tell that their starts to life were so different. Here is one of my favorite pictures of this sweet baby girl, Avery Leanne:
