She is here!!

We welcomed our sweet baby girl, Kate Terry, at 7:17am on July 9th.  She is named after my great -grandma and my Mom.  She weighed 6 lbs 7ozs., and was 19 3/4" long.  My water broke at about 6:30pm the night before at home, and we were at the hospital by 8pm, so it all went pretty quickly - much faster than before!  :)  Kate spent a few hours in the NICU for low blood sugar, but by later that same day she was back in the nursery and with us.  We went home on Monday morning, and we've all been doing great. 
She is a little doll, and we can hardly believe we've been so blessed twice over. 

A little tired, a lot hungry, but feeling over the moon (much happier than the pic shows)!!

Grace with her "Gam-ma" and baby sister.


Grace is such a sweet girl and has taken to having a baby sister really well.


First bath at the hospital.

Getting ready to go home.
She looks SO tiny in that car seat!
Grace likes giving her sister kisses and is very interested in diaper changes,
letting us know when the baby cries, feeding the baby, bringing her blankets, etc... 
It's been really cute to watch.
