We're Home!!!







We are home!! Yeah! I am not a big fan of hospitals, but they did such a great job of making me feel comfortable! We are doing great! I feel so blessed that my body handles delivery so easily! I love being able to breath and to bend over and to do things more naturally! Sophie is doing great! She has been a piece of cake! I love how being a mom is so much more natural. I was actually nursing at the computer while helping Jon print out graduation announcements! And Sophie was just choking on spit up and we just handled it, instead of freaking out. Jon pointed out that with Emma it would have been a very traumatic situation. Emma with her stressful stay in the NICU and the thought of siezures kept me up at night checking her every minute. It has been nice just to enjoy every moment! The picture of Emma is when she stole my bed so she could watch backyaridgans...it was pretty funny! Emma is constantly coming over to give her little sis a hug or a kiss. I promise I will update more. I know family is dying to see her, and I am being asked for more pics constantly. I better get back to helping Jon get these announcements out! Oh and a shout out (thanks linz I can't seem to think of a better way to phrase it now!) to Julie for the BEST lasagna I have ever had!!! We really appreciate the help!

cute, cute, cute! By the way, did I tell you that Taylor's b-day is on the 23rd too! It's a great day for a birthday! Isn't it amazing how the 2nd baby is such an easier adjustment and less stressful situation? I'm so glad things are going well so far! Keep us posted, but more importantly, get some sleep!

I just cannot describe how sad I am- they are both so beautiful and I'm dying to give both Emma and baby Sophie hugs and kisses. I loved it when you said the other day "the girls" because it brought back such wonderful memories of when you girls were all so little. Love you lots- I AM COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS!!!

I am so excited that you posted more pictures! I hate just seeing pictures of new babies, though, because there's nothing like holding, smelling and kissing a newborn baby! I can't wait to see your cute little girls!
