We're a Family of Five!

Now that it's been over a month since I last posted, we've become a family of FIVE!!

Helen Anne Boyette was born Wednesday, January 20th, at 2:49pm. She was *supposed* to be born on Thursday, January 21st at 8:30am. Clearly our plans didn't work out! Helen was 20.5 inches long and weighed 7lbs 12oz.

We are thrilled to have a new addition to our family. Helen is a very good baby; she sleeps a lot and only fusses when she truly needs something (food, sleep, diaper).

Ben and Seth are adjusting quite easily to their new sister. Ben loves to look at her and touch her and hold her. Seth also enjoys his new sister, but he's not quite as intense as Ben is.

Enjoy the pictures of our little princess!

Big Brother Ben is so proud that he can hold her!
