We are so excited to announce the arrival of our beautiful baby girl. It seemed to have taken her a while to get here. She must have been too comfy in there. I was started Monday morning and she was here within 6 hours. She is very healthy and the girls are so excited to have her here with us. It is amazing how fast she changes; from birth, to a few hours, to a few days. We love having her in our lives.
She came out so hungry she started sucking her thumb.
Proud Daddy
The girls came to see me. They were so excited that baby Violet came out.

Proud sister.
Waiting to go home. She has changed already since birth.
She is home!
Here is a picture of me the night before Violet was born:

She is beautiful! I'm so excited that you have her on the outside now. You look amazing! I can't wait to come and see you again...
The two bottom pictures (above the prego one) have to be my favorite out of the bunch! I have been trying to guess which name you guys were going to use, Violet didn't even dawn on me! I love it! Congratulations!!! We're so happy for you!!!!
Congratulations! We are so happy for you guys! She's as gorgeous as her big sisters! Daisy and Lily look like two very proud big sisters!!
Congrats again!
Congrats!! What a fun time for your family. Violet is so precious. I can only imagine how those older sisters are going to gobble her right up. Also, I have to say I am just smiling at your night before picture. It's no wonder she came the next day. Your poor tummy looks like it is just going to fall down. So darling. I sure hope all is well. We are thrilled for you and your family. Much love to all of you!!!
Congratulations!! She is so cute! and I really like her name!
Hurray!! I haven't ever seen such a beautiful healthy, chunky baby! Mine are so skinny. You look amazing and what a fast L & D!! Congrats, the girls look so proud!
Congratulations! She is just beautiful! All your girls are!!!
Congrats you guys! She is beautiful, and I love her name! I asked Andy what you named her and he couldn't remember (go figure). Anyway, congratulations, you have a beautiful little "flower" garden! :)

Anna! I'm answering your question on here, because I don't know your email, and I'm not sure if you'll check back on my blog! :) Anyway, my girls do fight and argue. :) When they do, I always separate them, either send one to the room and the other to the couch and I don't give them a set time, I just tell them they have to stay there until they're ready to apologize and get along. It usually doens't take too long. :) And, Brooklynn (4) knows just how to push Rachey's (6) buttons...so I try to pay attention to how far Brooklynn's pushed her and stop her before Rachey loses it. :)And I coach Rachey on being patient and ignoring Brooklynn's button-pushing, and talk to Brooklynn about not teasing people. Anyway, if you have any great ideas, let me know!!! I'm always open for some new ideas!
Anna,
