Introducing...

...Miss Caroline Elaine who weighed in at 9lb. 3oz. and measured 22" long!  She fooled us all - even during labor, the doctors were guessing in the 7lb. range.  But she is no skinny little thing like her sister was. She's got some chubb on her thighs already.

She has the most hair of any of our babies, and it's so dark!  Adorable!  Her eyes look very dark too, and perhaps we will have a brown-eyed girl this time. Her brothers and sister are smitten with her, just as we are.  Yesterday, Luke just kept commenting that she smells like a baby - and he meant that in a good way.  She'd just had her first bath.    

  

I am so thankful for the many prayers of our family and friends as we waited for her arrival and during the labor and birth.  God has richly blessed us once again!

May the Lord grant you grace as you recover and enjoy this new little member. I love you, Chris, and miss you terribly but am rejoicing with you!!!
