And Then There Were Three...

Alexander Gabriel joined our family on Monday at 2:05. He weighed 8 pounds, 11 ounces and was 20 and 1/2 inches long. We are all doing well. Trying to settle in and get the hang of being a family of five.

Here are a few more pictures....

I Need A Break Before I Break

Damn. There is so much swirling around in my little brain.....So. Much. I am getting ready to enter my most personally difficult time of the year. Emotionally.
