Our New Addition

Wren Caroline
Born May 9, 2009 - 6:22PM
6lbs 7oz, 191/4 inches



Proud parents - yes, the baby is bluish. We had a bit of an issue with the cord, but the delivery went quickly and after a little time with the nurses, little Wren was fine.

Enjoying Wren at home

Wren has the sweetest disposition. She was 6lbs when we left the hospital, but she is such a good eater, we know that she won't be small for long. She has been sleeping through the night since we got her home (I know this can't last) and puts up with being passed around. Grayson, who is 2 and a half, is doing great. He loves the baby and if you ask what he thinks of her, he says, "Ohhh, cute" - a perfect mimic of his older sisters. For some reason, when asked what the baby's name is, he says, "Poop!" We're not sure why, but it's hilarious.

Averie, who is almost 5, loves to hold the baby and is very helpful. She had a cold when the baby was born, so she is just now getting to be more cuddly with her.

The older kids all think the baby is the tiniest, sweetest baby ever (she is). They can't believe that they had such little fingernails and feet and ears. We are enjoying figuring out who she looks like. So far, we think she's a pretty good mix. Daddy's ears and nose. Mommy's lips and eyes and loooong fingers and toes.


Big Sister, Averie
