Jocelyn Christine!

We welcomed little Jocelyn Christine into the world....

Sunday, July 12th
12:59 pm
20.5 inches, 7 lbs 5 oz

We came home from the hospital on Monday and enjoyed having Zach home with us most of this last week. My mom is coming to help tomorrow and then by next Monday I'm hoping to be back on my feet and feeling a lot more normal. We're starting (and I hope continuing!) to sleep a little better and I'm healing from Jocelyn's very quick (we arrived at the hospital just about 1 1/2 before she was born!) delivery!

Carolyn ADORES Jocelyn and is THRILLED to be a big sister. She can't keep her eyes and hands off of Jocelyn and spends most of the day at her side.

Our family of 4!

7 lbs 5 oz, a shock to us since Carolyn was 9lbs, 3 oz!

Sweet, sweet Sisters!

Daddy and his girls!

Happy Birthday Mommy!

We had a very special day for Mommy's birthday today (and at this time of day I think it's safe to say baby and I won't be sharing a birthday!)

Zach took the day off of work to spend time with Carolyn and I. In the morning, Carolyn and Zach made and iced cakes for my birthday. Carolyn did her cake all by herself (including the writing). Interestingly, there isn't much difference between the cake made by Zach and the one made by Carolyn. ;)




In the afternoon, we went to a friend's house to swim. It was the first beautiful day we've had in the longest time and we really, really enjoyed the sunshine! Carolyn has become very brave in the water and loves to swim around in her life jacket!

Bike Riding and Belly!

Carolyn loves to ride her bike! We took her to the bike path Sunday afternoon, which started out really well, but ended in her being exhausted and cranky - I guess we went past her limit! She didn't want to turn around ever, but really I think she didn't understand that as far as we went out she had to come back....

39 1/2 weeks!
