Krystal Nielson & Lesley Murphy Just Dropped the Cutest Photos of Their Newborn Daughters
Someone pass the thermometer, because we’re coming down with a case of baby fever!
New moms Krystal Nielson and Lesley Murphy each took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the most adorable photos of their newborn daughters.
Krystal — who welcomed Andara Rose with boyfriend Miles Bowles on March 31 — posted several snaps that see her little one sleeping soundly in an array of cozy pink blankets. In one pic, Andara sports a floral headband. In another, she looks angelic with a string of silver and gold stars wrapped around her head, resembling a halo.
Naturally, Krystal had a tough time deciding which shot was her favorite. “Oh my GOODNESS!!!!” she wrote. “1, 2, 3, or 4?????” she asked her followers.

Meanwhile, Lesley — who welcomed Nora Blanche with fiancé Alex Kavanagh on February 12 — uploaded a mini album that first shows her bundle of joy cuddled up in a moon-shaped basket while wearing a knit headband adorned with pink roses. In a separate image, Nora rocks a cherub-like hair accessory similar to Andara’s, a circlet of glittering stars.
“You are my moon, You are my stars,” Lesley wrote in her caption. “Nora Blanche...so happy you’re ours.”

During an exclusive interview with BachelorNation.com in March, the Arkansas native opened up about acclimating to first-time motherhood and the joys of raising Nora.
“I always knew parenthood would be completely impossible to prepare yourself for. It’s overnight that your life changes. It’s beautiful and amazing and exhausting and really freaking hard. It’s so many emotions wrapped up in one,” she said.
“Seeing Nora smile, seeing her happy, just fuels me. It is the best,” Lesley continued. “And then on the flipside of that, seeing her fussy and seeing her crying kills me. I don’t know what’s wrong and, of course, you can’t ask a baby what’s wrong and so that is on the other side of the spectrum. The emotions are just a full-blown roller coaster.”
