the new girl in our family comes home

We've been blessed again.
We had another daughter she was born at 8:33 am on Monday in Rochester, Minnesota. After three days in the hospital everyone's finally gotten home safe and sound. Now I have the chance to share some pictures and video of our newest little girl. She's been a real joy to watch and hold.

Right now she's being just a little vocal about a few things. She's learning very fast about the world around her and is getting very close to her mom. The pictures are just a few of many from the past week. If your browser doesn't support the slide show try this link out picasaweb.google.com/unlikelyconversation/ANewGirlInOurFamily




We even broke out the video camera on the day of our newest daughters birth. I get a real kick out of watching the way her big sisters responded to meeting her. The giggles are are coming from pure joy. Our minute older twin had a cold that day and had to wear a surgical mask so not to get the baby sick.

There's no question for me. We've been blessed with our two older girls and now we are blessed again as our family is continuing to grow. For all these gifts we give our thanks and praise to God.

Please check out the video. It's posted on youtube and on vimeo. Please let me know if you can see any difference in quality. I like vimeo but I want to give them both a try and see how they both work.

Vimeo's first,

these videos are priceless! i think the best part is when siri says 'i love drugs.' the twins' reaction to their new sister is adorable.

Congratulations!

When we brought Sister #2 home, the splendid excitement and holy adoration was repeated. For a few days.
Sister #1 came to us and demanded #2 be taken back to the hospital. “She doesn’t do anything!”
After a very gentle and tender disquisition on God’s blessing us with a sister to love, #1 stomped her foot and said, “Then God can take her back and send somebody who can play dolls.”
My girls are now just north and south of 50 and very glad God did no such thing.

Oh how wonderful! I praise and thank God for giving you a healthy baby girl. What a precious miracle. What's her name?
