April 3, 2011 we welcomed Violet Leona to our family. She was 6 lbs. 14 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long, the smallest of our children (the boys were over 8 lbs. and Ruby was over 7 lbs.). She was born on her actual due date at 3:33 pm. She is a sweet and healthy baby.
The kids love their little sister! Owen was a little cautious of her, but Sam and Ruby were both excited to hold her and touch her soft hair.

Here is Bethany entering the hospital. She had been having contractions all week and a couple false alarms, so after talking to the doctor, we went to the hospital and with a little help, Violet was born less than four hours later.
Welcome to Violet, and congratulations to you all! We can't wait to meet her.
ReplyDeleteHooray! Congratulations to everyone! Violet is beautiful. I've been thinking about you and hoping she'd been born. Take it EASY - you don't get this recovery time back.
