It's a...another girl!!!!!

And now she's almost 2 months old!  (I'm just a wee bit behind on the blog posts.  That's what three kids 3 and under does to you I guess!)

With that said, lets back up to the beginning. 
My original due date for Baby #3 was April 7th.  As with my other two babes, this little one did not come early either.  In fact, 11 days later she finally decided to join us!  I went in to be induced early in the morning on Wednesday, April 17th.  All throughout the day I made my laps at the hospital with minimal contractions and a huge smile on my face.  At about 5pm Dr. Bell stated that that we would try Pitocin at 6am the following morning since these cervix-thinning tablets weren't doing the trick.  Thankfully, labor kicked in later that evening and we were able to get the show on the road!

At 4:11am on Thursday, April 18th, we were blessed to announce that Maycie Sophia joined our family.  She weighed in at 9lbs 5oz, and was 21inches long.  Such a healthy baby girl from the get-go, and life has been grand ever since then!  Having three girls is such a joy...we are truly blessed!

And she's here!  Not too happy about her new environment,
but I'm sure she'll change her mind soon enough!

Daddy and Maycie

Look at those tiny feet...such a gift from God!

She's so long.

Natalie worked hard on writing her name on a birthday card for Maycie.
This is my "WOW, I'm so impressed"-face.  :)

Let the chaos begin!

Aleah's first chance to hold her baby sister.

Kisses from big sisters are...

well, you know, sweet but a little slobbery! :)
Note the face that Maycie is making in this picture.

Big sister makes that same face. 
We think Maycie looks a lot like Natalie, especially when she makes this face!

So excited to have Maycie hold her finger.

Cuddles with Nana.

Chit-chat with Papa.

This one missed her Daddy so!

Headed home!

These two were a little awe-struck at how much noise their tiny little sister could make when getting her diaper changed.  This was the scene at diaper changing time for the first few days.

Our first trip into the great outdoors.

First trip to the hills overlooking the dam.

SO PRECIOUS!
Welcome home Maycie Sophia.
