Settled In

This is Kara's mom, again. I've been coaxed out of retirement by Kara. She is finding that her time is no longer her own and posting has taken a backseat to nursing and sleeping. I will try and bring you up to speed on life since Gracie's arrival.

First, a word about the toes. Gracie got Aaron's big toes. They are unusually large with a mammoth space between them and the next toes. Kara is NOT happy about this gene being passed on, but Aaron is quite pleased.

Meanwhile, Gracie has spent her time napping--

with Dad and

with Momma.

She passed her hearing test,

and met new friends, both little

and big.

She showed off her mullet,

gave us a glimpse into her eyes

and got dressed for the first time.

She posed for "leaving the hospital pictures"

and discovered a Welcome Home sign on her front door.

(props to Mema since Poppy and his awesome sign making skills won't arrive until Saturday),

And now she has settled into life as

Gracie Kate.
