New Baby

Yesterday we went to the hospital to welcome a new little niece into the family. My brother-in-law and his wife decided not to find out what the gender of this baby was before it was born and so we all were in suspense until she made her appearance. I really thought it was going to be a boy, but I really wanted a little girl so that she and her sister could play together.
This is a picture of her older sister looking through the crib to see this new creature. Her older sister wasn't so sure about having a new baby at first but after just a little bit of time she was ready to hold her...but had to wait until today when they came home from the hospital.
Here's the proud dad looking a bit tired after a long night and day. But I have to say that everyone is glad that she is here and healthy.
And Grandma got to hold her.
Just look at that hair! There really is a lot of it and it's at least an inch long.
Lovely!!

Here's a photo of her older siblings. They were just as excited to see her as they were when they saw the train out the window.
And this is my favorite picture of her. She looks a lot like her older sister!

Thanks for posting pictures--I'm excited to see her. She's beautiful! I hope it's not too long before I get to hold her.
