We have arrived!

Finally! We have completed our family. Little Kelly Isabel made it here on November 2nd with no complications. After my epidural wearing off at 7 cm... I had a rough time getting her here. I'm glad she is the final addition to the bunch, because I don't think I could handle another one after her. And, yes it is true that you forget about the pain after they arrive...but it does follow you home. Lilly and Kyler were so excited to see her. Poor Kyler kept asking..."Where is she?" Then all of a sudden Lilly wants to know how she got out......
I got my tubes tied a couple of hours after she was born which I have absolutely no regrets about at this point. One child is too little....two kids are manageable...three rugrats is a challenge. The house finally seems to feel "full" now.
Grandma (MIL) stayed with us for a week and dad sure was thrilled to have the help. Kelly is quite the little eater and seems to keep me busy most of the day. Kyler enjoyed having daddy home to play cars with him and Lilly hated to go back to school b/c she just wants to eat the baby! She is infatuated with her 24/7! I hear her say "my baby" to her a lot. I cannot imagine what would happen if she had received a baby brother instead of Kelly. She wants me to show her to all her friends and doesn't want to leave her side. I know it could be worse...but I'm sure Kelly is thinking that she could use some personal space.

We'll see how we do on Week 2 while I am flying solo.... until then...
