101th post! We're home!!

Hello everyone!! We're home! We actually got to come home on Wednesday the 31st and it was so awesome to get back. Libby is doing fantastically! We're really enjoying our little "Babymoon".

Thanks to everyone for your well-wishes and messages! I'll write a full birth story later, I don't want to forget anything! Mom has been fantastic, she's been cooking and cleaning for us and we're really been able to enjoy baby time. Tim is superdad and loves snuggling with Libby. She's sleeping right now and he's been begging me to go wake her up so he can hold her. :) (Anyone else remember that Friends episode where Rachel brings Emma home and wakes her up?) Maddie is doing fine. She is very curious at times and ignores her the rest of the time. I'm suspecting they'll be best buds in the years to come. She hasn't shown any signs of jealousy and we're trying to treat her normally.

Also, congrats to Todd for guessing the date and being so close on the time! He was really close, he just didn't factor in that it would take so long to deliver her after I got to 10 cm. :) He was also very close on her weight and length although Emily guessed her weight spot on and Katey got her length right! Oh and another funny thing, Kacie and I switched due dates!! She had her little boy 10 days early on Libby's due date and I took her little guy's date of the 30th!! Too funny!! Have you checked out his picture? He's a real cutie!

And THANKS Bethanie for updating everyone!! Great job! I love how quickly news spreads. :) I was planning on sending her updates but that was NOT happening once labor began. :) Oh and yes, Bethanie, I do believe she has the Shenk nose. ;) Tim agrees. :)

Speaking of cuties, I'm going to leave you with a few pictures of our little darlin. More posts to come!!

Oh, Stacy, it's all so wonderful! Wow, your 101th post! So, was the 100th post Libby's birth announcement? Wow! Yay! :) Except I kinda feel like I stole your 100th post, but you did ask me to do it. Lol. I am SO looking forward to hearing all about her!

Love the pics! The one of Tim on the couch is priceless. Moody loved taking naps with the kiddos on the couch. :)

Enjoy it- she will grow so fast!

A baby changes things;
They’ll never be the same;
Your life is filled with wonder,
Since your little miracle came.

There’s lots of things to do now,
But with the new tasks you face,
Your family gains more love,
And bonds time will never erase.

Congratulations on your new addition!

Love, Catherine
