4 Kids-Week 1

Well we did  it! We have successfully survived 1 week with 4 little girls.  Well Grant and I consider it a success, Emma might have another opinion on the matter.  We are settling in well, and had lots of family time together with 2 days off school for holiday/teacher work day and 1 1/2 cold and snowy days.  Becca has finally decided baby Alicia can stay and even finally wanted to hold her one week later.  Everyone but Grant and Alicia have been fighting colds/coughs this week.  Emma was super frustrated she couldn't hold or play with the baby.  I am worried for the poor thing once Emma is better!  Well baby is calling-here are some pictures.

Baby Alicia-again!

So here are some more pictures of Alicia Elizabeth. She was born Saturday January 18th 2014 at 4:38pm on her due date!  She weighed 8lbs 7 oz and is 21 inches long. We are so glad she is here and are loving every second with her.  She is a pretty calm baby and doesn't cry much-unless you are changing her clothes.  She even seems to be taking the binkie-hooray!  We came home from the hospital yesterday and are getting all settled in.  Emma and Leah love to hold and stare at her.  Becca is content to just ignore her.  She refuses to hold her or even kiss her and just says put her back in her bed.  You can never quite guess how they will react! 

First time meeting her sisters

Open eyes

Yawn

Not sure if you can see it but her hair on top refuses to lay flat!

Must be a happy dream!
