In the past two weeks...

• We welcomed our baby girl Violet Marie
• Our hearts instantly grew, and we all fell madly in love with her
• I've spent most of this time holding this precious gift
• We celebrated Harrison's 7th Birthday
• I had my first Mother's day as a Mother to 5...WOW
• We've been so blessed to have friends bring us a dinner every single day
• Violet weighed in at 5lbs 13oz's on day 11
• Violet's umbilical cord fell off on day12 much to her big brother Jack's delight
• Tim and I are still amazed that she is a girl :)
• I fell even deeper in love with my husband
• Welcoming Violet into our home has been the easiest transition, it's like she's always been here
• Violet has proven to be the best baby ever
• Olivia's wish came true, she now has a baby sister
• Max has slowly and carefully warmed up to his baby sister
• I am 3 pounds under my starting weight, but can't fit into my jeans...wth
