Introducing...

...Baby Alice!!  Alice Maureen was born on May 6th at 10:45pm.  She was a small 7lbs 4oz and 20.25 inches long.  Our smallest baby!  The delivery was fast and painful (imagine an exorcism...i screamed and moved around about like that)..too fast for pain meds.  But she came out and was as perfect as can be.  Well...see for yourself!

The kids adore her.  Thank God!  Maria is a huge help (really!) getting me diapers for both Alice and Jamie, cleaning up any toys that I ask...she makes my life at home a lot easier!  I can't imagine having the new baby and then 2 little monsters at home, too!  I am so lucky I have these sweet, good kids!  This is their first time meeting little Alice:

Alice is now 6 1/2 weeks and doing GREAT!  I am doing just as well--recovery was great and while I am still tired some days and I have some weird aches and pains left over from birthing a small human (it hurts so bad), I am doing great.   I feel so lucky to have a healthy, happy, beautiful family!
