Happy day

Hooray, we have another baby girl!  We thought maybe baby was waiting for the rain to stop and Spring weather to really come before making an appearance.  But when the weather refused to cooperate, maybe this sweet girl decided that a beautiful sunrise would suffice.  And finally getting to meet her made even the labor, all five days of it, worthwhile.  We wanted so much to know who she was.  SO happy to finally have you here, baby dear!

Two hours old.  Sideways.  Interested in the world.

Tiny!

Daisy is not sure what to think, but knows this thing is delicate.

"I like those boys," Sophie said, "Sometime can we go to their house?" Congratulations!! I love her already. And Miss Daisy looks so grown up holding her very own sister.

Wow mar! Congratulations! Four days of labor? like, hard labor, or on and off? You deserve a medal. I give you a hug--

Can't wait to hold her in a few months.

Hooray! I didn't even realize you were expecting...
Congrats on letting Juniper come on her own schedule and not running in for an induction!
