I wish I could take credit for most of these amazing shots....but our good friend who is a professional photographer joined us in the delivery room to capture Caroline's first moments in to the world. It was a VERY fast labor. I got to the hospital at 8:00 AM on Wednesday, August 11th. The doctor broke my water around 8:30 and Caroline was born 3 hours later at 11:30 AM. She came in to the world so easily...now let all the fun begin!!

First shot with her Dad.

In her mother's arms for the first time!

Sweet Caroline.

This was the first time Annalee met Caroline. The moment was priceless. She pointed out her nose, eyes, hair, mouth and toes! She brought her a little stuffed owl and gave her the sweetest kiss on her forehead.

Uncle Brad and Aunt Shea came with Annalee and Caroline's cousin, Graham.

Caroline was the sweetest baby in the hospital. She slept great right away and ate like a champ.

On Friday, August 13th we headed home. Mittie took Annalee to College Station while we were in the hospital so when we got home it was just the three of us. We missed Annalee immediately and were ready for her to be home. But...it was nice to rest and give Caroline all of our attention for just a little while.
