Here She Is...

We've been a family of three for about four hours now. We've played, had dinner and now she is sound asleep. She likes a bottle at bedtime so we got one ready and she took it like a champ. She feel asleep in my arms as she finished the bottle. We've had a few smiles and Jon even got a kiss. We are blessed beyond belief. We have a morning of paperwork tomorrow and oh, who am I kidding, no one is reading this... Here's the pictures!!!!
