The baby has been doing very well and seems to be a very good natured little one. We have only heard a little bit of crying all day. This picture is only minutes after the birth. Look at how calm the little one is.
Cari and the baby are both doing very well. The hardest part of the day was drawing some blood from Cari. After that it was all down hill from there. We watched August Rush and by then it was time to push. After about 4 contractions we had a new baby.
Lainey is very excited about the new baby. She is also very excited to point out we are now a family of 5. Lilly is still a little unsure about this, but she seems to like the baby.
The girls were actually able to be present during the baby's first bath. They did it in the room so Cari was able to watch it this time. Lainey liked holding the baby's hand during the bath. I was doing the bath so I don't have any pictures of that.
Gotta kiss the baby...
Lilly of course needed some time with mom. :-)
We had a lot of friends and family come and visit and call us on the phone. It is so great to have so much support. Thanks everyone, we really enjoyed your company and love today.
Grandpa Renn (Cari's dad)
Aunt Jana (Cari's sister-in-law), who took the girls last night and today. Thanks Jana!
Aunt Ashley (Lance's sister) and her daughter Kaylee
Our friends, the Kingsleys and Combs visited us, Caroline and Melissa are pictured. Sorry Mike and Dan no pictures of you. You know how it is; we aren't really important when it comes to this kind of thing. :-) Thanks for coming guys.
Oh I guess I should also say that the baby is a boy for all those who were wondering. :-) We thought we had a name picked out when the baby came, but we have had some impressions that it may need to be different. We are still trying to figure everything out. Hopefully, we can nail it down soon. :-)
