Okay obviously with all my free time that I am not use to I am taking a lot of pictures. It is funny, most of the time life is so busy and you would give anything for a free moment, until you have one. I get up clean my house, do a load of laundry, feed kate, try to handle ella and then wonder what I am going to do the rest of the day. I am sure after I get use to being home for a week or two I will settle down and enjoy being home especially now that it is the holidays. I also have had some time to realize how truly lucky I am. Between my great husband, kids, family, and friends I am very blessed.

First bath at home

Grandma tammy s here helping us the first couple of days so I don't over do it. (not me :). We gave Kate a bath today and she rather enjoyed it. Maybe she will be the mellow child I have been praying for to balance out her sister.

Welcome to the world KATE!!

Well on thursday morning 11/11 Kate joined our family the same way her 2 sisters did, via c-section. It was different however, in that I did not throw up through the whole thing. This is a first! Kuddos to my new best friend Todd Gemlich, the nurse anesthetist!! He did a great job in keeping me from vomiting. Also I had the great experience of having my friends/doctors get to deliver this baby. Joe Watson and Jeff Zollinger also did a great job of getting me cut open and put back together again. I'm pretty sure my scar is straight :) Kate has been a great baby so far. She is little but mighty. She was 5 lbs 5 ounces and 19 inches at birth. When we left the hospital saturday she was down to 5 lbs 2 ounces with clothes on. She will have some catching up to do. Ella and Bailee could not be happier big sisters. They love her so much. Here are a few pictures for those of you who have not seen her. There is even a video if I can get it to work of kate joining this world.
