Settling In

Amanda seems to be settling in quite well. She has 5 people tripping over themselves to hold, kiss, change, or feed her.

David & Baby Daughter

I could stare at him, staring at her, all day.

Amanda's Girlfriends

Larry and Erin brought the twins over for a little playdate...sort of. When looking at Amanda they couldn't believe their girls were ever that small. I reminded them that their girls were about half her size when they got that miraculous call telling them they had twin girls in the hospital nursery waiting to be picked up. Then known as, twin A and twin B, just 4 and 5 lbs., now known as Mary and Margaret and...super big:) Talk about thriving! Oh, they are also two of Amanda's best friends she's know all her life (along with Patsy and Katherine of course).:-)

This is actually her second playdate, but the 1st one documented. Declan, her future husb...I mean friend, came to see her when she was less than a week old. Both Christine and I forgot to get the camera and shoot away pics of us with our new babies. AAHHH! Photoshop, photoshop. That just shows how sleep deprived I am with my little miss nocturnal.

We're Home!

We're home with another little girl! That worked out well:) Of course, Patsy doesn't seem to think so in this shot (the 3 nights away has gotten to her, I think). Come visit soon, Amanda's a little angel!

Amanda has Arrived!!!

It is with great joy, we announce the birth of our daughter,

We all agree...she's a keeper! :)

Another Thumbsucker?

We'll see. The boys never did, but Patsy still does at bedtime/naptime. It may be a girl-thing.
