Double Rainbow!!

So... we had an intense double rainbow the other day... I had to grab my camera and go outside. All of a sudden I hear my neighbor yelling at me... "OHHH It's so beautiful- OOHHHH a DOUBLE RAINBOW... OHHHH" I looked at him and was thinking**freak** and then he asked me if I had seen the double rainbow guy on you tube. I had not, so I had to check it out.

For those of you that haven't... here is a link- as well as MY double Rainbow pic!! lol!!

Alicia~ Finally a big sister!

Alicia (like all of us) is so in love with Elli! And she is doing really great at being a big sis.  :)

Elli's Quilt

My Mom is making all of her grand kids lap quilts. They are so beautiful! I want her to hurry so she can make them for her own kids!!! Here is the quilt she made for Elli  :)  Love it!!!

I Love all the material she used! 

My Sweet Pea!

It is soooo much fun having a precious little baby again. I have forgotten how much work they are... and the lack of sleep has rendered me mentally retarded at times... but Oh what a blessing and Joy!!

I love her yellow rocker and I thought how fun it would be to take it to a field or up in the mountains. I love what we ended up with. I have to thank her Big sis Alicia for helping me take these photos. I couldnt have done it without her!

My mind was so consumed with the whole situation I did not bring a camera to the hospital. So all of these pictures are from my phone. I really didn't know what to expect when we were there. Would we be able to see her? Keep her in the waiting room? How would it all go down?? At first the birth mom was going to let me in the surgery room and then a few days before the birth she changed her mind. Then at the hospital a RN came up to me and handed me a gown and booties! I had 2 minutes to get gowned and I was able to be there for her birth.

We ended up having a GREAT experience at the hospital. They actually gave us our own room! So we stayed in the hopsital both nights and kept little Elli with us the whole time. The birth mom had only a couple visits with her. As soon as the legal paperwork was signed on Friday- we were able to take our baby home! So here she is- at her first moments in life! And look at all her hair!! Isn't she adorable?!?!?!
