On October 14 at 12:50 am, we welcomed our sweet Hannah Jane to the world! She weighed 9lbs. 5oz. and measured 21 inches long. Look at that chunk!

It’s hard to believe she is already a week old. She looks so much like her brother and already has a little personality developing. She likes to party all night and sleep all day….we’re working on that. Oh, and she doesn’t like to sleep unless she is in someone’s arms. Otherwise, she has been a very easy going little gal. I still can’t believe I have a little girl. I’m pretty sure we are going to go broke buying outfits and hairbows.

Noah is so excited to be a big brother and has been so sweet with her. He is always asking me if he can hold her and gets very concerned when she cries. We had to bring him to the hospital with us when I went into labor while we waited for my parents to arrive and when the nurse came in and said “looks like we’re having a baby today,” he screamed with excitement at the top of his lungs. It was the most heartwarming thing ever! And when he came the next day to meet her, we told him he had a baby sister and he looked at me, then at the baby and back at me and said “peanut came out of mommy’s tummy? yaaay!” It was pretty awesome. He’s going to be the best brother ever.

We are trying to figure out our new normal around here so I may be a bit MIA around here for a couple weeks. I will try to pop in once or twice a week with a recipe to share but won’t be following my regular schedule for a little while. Ok, I’m off to snuggle that sweet face.

And I’ll leave you with some angry eyebrows….she’s really good at them.
