The day before we had Jillian the hospital implemented a new rule that would allow no visitors under the age of 18, because the flu is so bad :( Major Bummer! I love it when the kids get to come to the hospital and see the new baby. They had to wait until we brought her home.
They were all SO excited! 


Graeson has been gearing up to be a big sister for months now.
She loves to rub her blanket on her lips when she is trying to fall asleep, as soon as we put Jillian in her lap she grabbed the corner of Jilli's blanket and rubbed in on her lips for her, So Sweet!
Raegan is enamored with her,
She spent the next three days drawing pictures of three princesses. She thinks it is amazing now we have a princess with yellow hair, one with brown hair and one with black hair!

Even Chance got in on the introductions
Terry surprised me with this the morning I had Jillian. It has 5 jewels, 3 rubies for the girls (long story, family tradition) and 2 diamonds for the boys, so sweet, I love it!
Every time we bring a baby home, the baby brings some kind of surprise for the older kids, Jillian brought all the kids their own goggles, Janie got a play cell phone, big hits all the way around! 
We were definitely feeling the love while we were in the hospital, thank you everyone for all the beautiful flowers and yummy treats! 


One of my awesome friends gave me this great shower gift, it was a sibling basket. She made personalized notebooks with each of the kids names, and some crayons, and candy, I wanted to give it to the kids when they came to the hospital, but it was still fun to give it to them the day we brought the baby home.
We are all settling in really well and just loving this sweet addition to our family!

Ok, that picture of Greyson rubbing the blanket on her lips is the cutest thing EVER!!
Did you end up doing it without an epidural then???! Oh my word that's crazy, and I'm so sorry you got stuck 5 times! I'm not saying I'm great or anything but I've never had to poke someone for IVs 5times because if it takes me more than 2 tries, I voluntarily walk out and go get someone else! I'm so sorry. And to be honest I've scoped out your veins before (habbit) and they aren't that bad. Anyways, sorry about the tangent...Jillian is beautiful!! I love all of her hair and we can't wait to see her! And you look great BTW :)
Sara she is beautiful!!! Congrats!! Miss you!
I just love your family! And I love your ideas, too. I'm totally stealing your idea for the baby to bring gifts to the older kids! Just so you know. LOVE IT!
