Welcome Eve Leona Fife!

Eve Leona Fife joined our family on Thursday, October 29th 2009 at 4:54 a.m. She weighed 8 lbs. 12 oz. and was 21 1/4 in. long.

A very relieved mom!

The highlight of the hospital stay was when Eve and I had visitors.
Luke thinks his baby sister is "so cute."
Grandma Shelley was a great support through it all. Thanks for taking such good care of Luke and Miriam while Morgan and I were at the hospital.
My daughters
My Daddy sent these beautiful roses to me while in the hospital. The nursing staff was very jealous! Thanks Daddy for remembering me. It made me feel so special!
We were discharged on Friday and soooooo glad to leave the hospital. Here's our pretty Eve ready to go home.
We feel very blessed at this time. Morgan flew in Wednesday evening and after he had been home for about 3 hours we were headed for the hospital. My epidural worked well and we both got rest before the real work started around 4:30 a.m. The delivery went well and so far the recovery is good too. I am grateful for my in-laws and all their help. They have made it very easy to make this transition to a family of 3 kids. So tuned for Halloween pictures!
