Two kids = BUSY!

I AM ALIVE!!! Shame on me for not posting!! I have tried though - for the last 20 days I have attempted to post something new...but every attempt ended with a baby crying for a feeding, someone needed a diaper change, Evelyn re-booting the computer because her busy fingers kept pushing the buttons...etc!! I am determined to finally get this post finished without interruption!!
Claire is beautiful and is changing everyday. We blessed Claire a week after she was born because my parents were in town and we wanted Grandpa to stand in the circle. My mom has stayed with us for the last 2 weeks and she left this morning - boohoooo! So, today was my first day officially alone as a new mommy of two! I got up, I fed the girls, I showered, I got ready for the day...and all this was done before 10am! Not bad for my first day alone. I didn't realize (until today) how BUSY Evelyn is. That child is into everything! She is a great big sister and loves to be mommy's helper with the baby.

There are more pictures and more to tell - some of you are dying to know the labor story - but I'll save that for another day. Enjoy the pics!
The above picture is Claire in the hospital - 2 days old.

Day 3 - Going home!!!
