How blessed we feel to have had this sweet little girl join our family. She is so patient and mellow...hurray! I have been laying low and just trying to add things back in a little at a time. What happy days they are amidst the chaos and screaming are sweet moments of joy watching D and Will love on her and play together, snuggling with Sophie, enjoying time as a family. Things quickly pick up with company coming, Britt's wedding and company for a couple of weeks after that but we are really looking forward to it. It will be fun for the boys to have people to play with and have something other than Noggin keeping them entertained when I'm feeding the baby. I look back at my life and can't express how blessed I feel! I love my life and my family and am so grateful for where we are right now. We've been blessed with wonderful friends who are such a support and a strength to us. I am reminded of that at times like this when the well wishes, phone calls, packages, etc. come so unexpectedly. Thank you for all your love over the last four weeks. This has truly been a special time! Here are some photos of the last little bit.

Sophie at a week and a half (her first Sunday back at church). Mat was speaking so I went (much earlier than normal for me) to go sit with the kiddos.
