Swings, duck faces and new cousins!!!

Boy ohhhh Boyyyy have we had an eventful week/end!!  Sarah texted me Sunday night to let me know she was in labor!!  Let's just say, I was so excited that I almost literally peed my pants!!  I picked up the girls at bedtime, transported them to my hizzy... put them all in some beds... got back in my sweet honeymoon van and drove right back to Sarah's!  I couldn't bear the thought of not being there when this baby was born!!  I'm so thankful that Sarah lets me accompany her on some of her birth journeys!  She is a better woman than I!  I can not do birth journeys like that... no wayyyyyyy.
 
 
These photos are a little out of order... so just don't pay attention to that!
Claire was born at 3:34 a.m.  I took all the kids to the park around 8a.m.  Everyone was super excited!!
 
 
Holly, the midwife, and the nurse doing what we did all evening... waiting. 
 
 
 We were so happy that we just had to wait.... and not do what Sarah was doing!
 
 
I taught Holly how to do a perfect duck face!  I could've probably convinced her to do anything at this point.   
Charlotte swinging!  She's not the littleist anymore!! 
 
Walking to and fro the park.   
 
Little Claire is such a dollie!  We are so unbelievably excited to have her in our family.  It just keeps on a-growin!

  1. Man, oh man, I am glad that day is over! Ai yi yi. I was so thankful you were there to take care of my ladies (including my mom and the midwives - ha!). It was fun seeing what was going on whilst I was concentraing on getting the little (gianormous) Claire Bear out. The petals are opening...the waves are crashing in and out...where is my poster?
