Our Sweet Baby Halle Jane

Here are some pictures of our new addition. I'm sorry it always takes me awhile to get them up. Halle Jane joined our family on August 21st 7:25 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 13 oz and was 20 inches long. The nurses delivered Halle. I didn't give the doctor enough time to get there. We showed up at 6:50 and Halle came 35 minutes later. It was a perfect delivery. We were a bit surprised by her size she was almost a pound and a half bigger then Taiya and Brynne. Halle is such a sweet little baby. I could hold her all day. She's also a good sleeper so I'm getting decent sleep too.

My favorite part was when the girls came to the hospital to meet Halle. I could hear them in the hall jumping up and down clapping their hands yelling "I'm so excited" Their eyes and smiles were so big. They brought presents, custom wrapped by Taiya, that they wanted to give Halle. They even sang her a few songs. It was so much better then Christmas morning.
Halle looks a lot like Brynne's baby pictures.

Am I a mean mom? I totally love this picture. She was a little ticked about her first bathtime.


I LOVE this little girl. We have nicknamed her Halle Huckleberry.


All the GIRLS.
