What do you mean "I'm not the only child anymore?!!"
Yep that's right! Introducing Katelynn Michelle! She was born May 06, 2009 at 2:06 pm and was 7 lbs 10 oz and 21 inches long. Labor went well and surprisingly fast. The doctor broke Michelle's water at 11:30 and just after 2pm she was squirming her way out!
It is truly amazing how similar these two babies are. Both have a ton of beautiful little hair and have pretty similar faces with those same adorable chubby cheeks!
For the last few months, we've tried to get Sammy excited about babies. Whether it has been talking about the baby in Mommy's belly or pointing out babies that we see. And in fact, he is a fan of babies and loves to play with dolls. Yes it's true. Necklaces and dolls, he certainly has a tender heart.
So far he has been super sweet about baby "kit-ty." He loves to give her kisses and hold her, and he is learning to be soft. He of course makes us nervous because he is so strong and sometimes quite quick. We have to keep an eye on him because if he sees her, he is going to go and touch her. Everyone loves to feel soft baby skin, and Sam's no different.
Being a big brother certainly must be tough work! I'm sure he would love to put little baby Katie on his sleepover list, but I think we'll hold off for a little while!
Here is a collage of a few videos we took of Sammy and Katelynn. Michelle's cousin has a boy and girl that are so cute and when I see them together I think of how lovely a relationship these two will have.
Here is our first family photo as a foursome
