Home at last

We finally made it home and are settling in. The kids were able to take a peek at their new sister from a distance....unfortunately they all have colds and bad coughs, so hugs, kisses and embraces will have to wait just a bit. Our youngest keeps telling me 'baby crying' and runs to the bedroom door to listen to her. He is also hugging my leg at lot :) I think he missed me!! He sure grew a few inches after comparing him to his little sister.....wow!! He's not my 'baby' anymore.....such a big boy. The other two just giggled at her and commented on all her features. It's going to be an adjustment over the next little while as we get into a new routine. Hubby still has house chore duty for the next 3 weeks. I'm not to do heavy lifting, bending or housework. Poor guy huh. I'm sure he'll be thankful when I'm back on my feet again :)
There's so much I'd like to talk about and pictures to post, but for now I'm going to put my feet up. I want to thank ALL of you for your constant prayers for us during these past several months and during delivery. You are such an encouragement to me and what a wonderful feeling it is to know that so many care about us and go before the Lord for us. Thank you so much!!!! Our God is so good!

  2. So glad to hear you are home - praise God for His goodness and care. I am sure Ben doesn't mind doing the chore duty for you - they do what they have to do.

    It is so cute that little brother lets you know when baby is crying - he probably will be clingy for a while - but will soon get used to her being there.

    Sorry to hear the kids are not well but hopefully they will be hale and hearty shortly. I am sure the little mother can hardly wait to get her hands on the baby and help Mom with her.
    Take it easy and I will continue to pray for God's care for all of you.
    Love to all.
