I'm alive!!!

Hello all and thank you for all your wonderful comments. They made me cry! Well, we are alive and barely functioning in our household. So. this will be a short post - I'll fill you in on all the details soon.

Gabrielle is lovely in every way. Her blond hair gets me every time I look at her. Samuel has had his ups and downs but is slowly adjusting. I am on the mend. A bit weak from losing so much blood, but definitely feeling better. Here are a few photos to hold you over...

She sleeps so peacefully!

Bright eyed and content in her comfy bouncer!

Samuel was sharing his puzzle with his baby sister!

Aww, Michelle, she's so adorable! That picture of her with Sammy is great. :) I'm glad to hear you're doing well.

I went on my trip to Brockport last week, but I didn't call to see if you were up to company, because it had just been a week, and I didn't want to intrude so early after she was born, especially since you had problems. I can't wait to meet her, though.

Congratulations to you and Tim. :)

Michelle, she's wonderful! the picture of Gabrielle with Samuel's puzzle loked very familiar - Gabby usually has one or another of Juli's stuffed animals or dolls laid lovingly in her bouncer. I think it's a good sign - sharing toys is 3 yr. old love language for sure!
