Meet Carolyn Grace!

It's Momma Bear here. It's official, we are a family of 4 here now! Carolyn Grace wasn't quite ready to come we thought...but then after only 2 hours of labor and 2 hours of pushing (she was of course facing up instead of down, just like her sister!) she came into the world! The recovery for both of us has seemed much quicker this time, and except for a small disagreement about sleeping at night when not in our arms, we are all doing well.



Lilly was soooooooo excited when we came home with Carolyn. We have been very suprised at how natural it seems to her for the new baby to be around. She wants to pick her up alot, which causes a bit of a screaming fit when we say no :) Luckily too is that Lilly is a daddy's girl, and since Dad is going to be home with us for a couple of weeks, she is pretty happy about getting to spend alot of time with him.

Here's us girls just hanging out watching TV. Could be possibly the worst picture of Mom EVER, but I think I was holding back tears of having our two little girls happy and healthy beside me.

And last, here is Dad's trick to Lilly's happiness.... Christmas Oreos :) Somehow he has won over her heart with these :)
