Baby Katelyn

Sweet Katelyn Terri Crosby joined our family one week ago today on December 14, 2011. She was born at 10:33 am, weighed 6 lbs. 5 oz. and was 20 inches long. She is growing like a weed and we are all in love with her. I love the feeling in our home with a newborn. I feel the spirit so much stronger with this tender, fresh-from-heaven babe in my arms. She is an angel and I feel angels are with her in our home. It is the best Christmas ever! What a great gift she is to our family!

My greatest worry about a second child was that Jacob would still feel loved and important and that he would love his sister. He LOVES baby Katelyn! He giggles every morning when he hears her wake up and can't wait to go see her. He loves to hold her and lay on the floor with her and point out her eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hands, etc. He is a very good big brother. There is defninitely some adjusting going on as he realizes mom can't drop everything to play with him like she used to be able to do. I'm also not at a place where I'm running around chasing him as usual. I think he misses that. He's doing very well with all the change, though. We are so proud of him for being such a great brother.

I will post more pictures later, but thought I should at least get one up with the announcement of our little girl. She's here! I'm one happy and very blessed mommy.
