Welcome Baby Sasha!

I am so excited and happy to announce the arrival of Baby Alexandra Hope "Sasha" to the world! Sasha was born on Tuesday, April 16th and was a healthy 8lbs 3oz!


You may be asking, "Who is this Baby Sasha?"

Sasha is a little miracle baby. Yes, ALL babies truly are miracles, but this one is a bit more special for me and Eva. I met her mother on a milk donation site and you may remember reading our story: Got Milk

Annie is a breast cancer and double mastectomy survivor who never thought she'd be adding a miracle to her family. After being able to breastfeed her three other children, not being able to provide to her new baby was something she struggled with until she found the organization Human Milk 4 Human Babies. We were connected on their Facebook site and able to meet back in February in person; something I will never forget! Although donated breastmilk will never replace being able to breastfeed your own child, I can only hope it will allow Annie connect with her beautiful miracle and help Sasha grow big and strong.

The experience was unforgettful for me and I can't wait to meet this little miracle and kiss those munchkin cheeks! Eva and I will always have a small connection with Sasha and I look forward to watching her grow!

Congrats to the new family!
