Our little bundle of joy has arrived, and we call her Lucy. She was born on Tuesday, April 25, 2006, measuring 7 pounds 14 ounces and 20 inches. Both Lucy and her mother, Ann, are doing great. Needless to say, we're delighted.

I won't say too much more here, except that her full name is Lucia Martha Boyd. There’s a lot to the name — so if you’re curious, please read all about Lucy. And don’t miss the ongoing news (with photos, including The Daily Lucy) about how she and the family are doing at Boyds’ Nest News.

If you’d like to leave Lucy a message to welcome her into our midst, please do! You can sign her online Guest Book at LucyBoyd.com.
