Sarah was able to come and be with us for several days. She arrived just after rebekah was born last Friday and stayed until Wednesday morning. She was a life saver. She took care of the kids while I was in the hospital and then took care of everything else until she left. Rich had a huge project due on Wednesday night and had to work super long hours. Sarah made sure that Rich could get his work done and that everyone else got where they needed to be. Sarah, we already miss you tons. Thanks to you and your family back in Arizona for sharing you with us. It was also fun to have Ava here. It is scary to realize how fast children grow up. It seems like Ava was just born.
Rebekah was a little bit shocked by the flash.
Rebekah's first bath was this morning. She quickly kicked off the wash cloth that was over her. We told Rachel not to worry because babies cry a lot during their first few baths. Then, Rebekah proved us wrong. She just layed there and was as great as ever. She also had her 1 week check up today. She is up to 6lbs. 2ounces and is measuring 18 1/2 inches now. I guess that her head must have been quite cone shaped to make her be 19 1/2 inches at the hospital. Rebekah has been a true joy so far. She is calm and a wonderful day time sleeper. Hopefully we will all get our days and nights straightened out soon.
