Mirabelle is Here!

Oh how lucky I am! Two days ago I got a new baby sister: Mirabelle.

Here she is with my mom, aren't they beautiful?!?

 Proud Dad.

 First bath.

 So cute!

 With Annou and Opa.

 Papa says hello to his second granddaughter.

 Madeleine with her baby sister. Trouble times two.

 A quiet moment with Nana.

 The three lovely ladies in my life.

 Nice shirt!

 Mirabelle has many admirers.

Aaron and Penny came by for a visit.

 And so did cousin Nancy.

 Leaving the hospital

Isn't she sweet?

Waiting for Baby #2

What better way to pass the time waiting for a new baby than to feed some ducks?

 Madeleine makes sure everyone gets their share.

 With Dad.

 Watch out for these dudes.

 Geez, doesn't anyone ever feed these guys?

 Ducks on the move.

 Last day as a family of four?

 Cuteness

Super cuteness!

With Momma.

After feeding the birds Madeleine figured it was time to make a little something for us!

 

 Needs more cocoa...

Here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks I've been meaning to post...

Here's Madeleine, happy as a clam as she awaits the arrival of her new sibling.

The nursery is primed and ready to go!
Lookin' good!
Madeleine has decided that at 2 1/2, it was time for her to move out on her own.

First time skating.

Happy 2011

Welcome to 2011. I hope that everyone had a good Christmas.

The holidays were a lovely time for family walk.

 Bring on 2011!

 Happy New Year!

 Who invited the pirate?

 Parents-to-be again.

 Madeleine loved New Year's brunch.

 I mean she really really liked it.

 I made this.

 We had a pretty amazing cold snap and what better chance for Madeleine to have skating lesson #2... outdoors!

 She's a natural.

 Perfect form.
