Sweet times...

Amidst the exhaustion and pain of recovery, newborns, etc. are the incredible moments of love, the sweet noises of a newborn, the soft touch of her skin, the adorable way her brothers love her, the awe of the miracle that's been created and so many other amazing moments during the last five days. Here are some pictures from the hospital and when we first arrived home on Saturday.
