So In Love









Such a cuddle bug!




I love this pic of Madelyn!




Big Sis, Lil Sis



I love this pic to pieces!




Liana's cord fell off this week so she got her first bath!



Best daddy in the whole wide world!



We have had such an amazing last 2 weeks with this new bundle of joy in our home! She has such a sweet sweet spirit. She very rarely cries, instead she does what we call the Billy Goat Grunt. Not having to wake up in the middle of the night to a screaming baby sure is nice! We get up twice in the night with her which isn't bad at all. She really is a great baby and we are so blessed to have her here.

Liana just had her 2 week Doctor's appointment. She weighs 6 pounds 15 ounces! She gained 10 ounces in the last week and surpassed her birth weight of 6 pounds 12 ounces! She also grew 1 1/2 inches since birth!! Eeeek she is already getting so big :( I must say though, it is very nice to have a big (relatively) and healthy baby.

The kids all love her to pieces! They all want to kiss her ALL of the time. The girls are very gentle and the boys pretty much clobber her if they can get to her. So we have to watch for that :) The quads have done remarkably well having a new baby in the home. Its like she has always been here. Eva, the Professional Big Sister, loves to hold Liana and takes really good care of her. She has been an awesome helper.

As for me, I am healing nicely. I cannot wait to start getting into shape again. I am so glad that I am actually back to my pre-pregnancy weight but I still have some toning to do. Trever went back to work this past week so I was really nervous about that. But, I must say, that for the first week being home with 5 kids and a newborn I held up pretty well :)

Well I think that's all for now!! Much love to all!

Introducing Liana Melonie King!!!

Liana Melonie King is here! We are so in love with her! She is a dream baby. I honestly do not have any clue what her cry sounds like. I am just so in love with her. She came into the world Tuesday March 29th, 20011 at 12:47 PM. She weighed 6 pounds 12 ounces and was 17.5 inches long. She came out just looking around and never made a peep. I was actually making more noise than she was as my spinal didn't work. Yes, It didn't work and I had a c-section. Absolutely the most pain I have ever been in in my life. I try not to think about that though....

The kids love Liana. Eva loves to hold her. She has been such a good big sister to her. The quads come running whenever they see her and say baby baby baby. Madelyn brings her all the blankies in the house and Dahlia cant stop kissing her. Parker pretty much attacks her (trying to love on her) and Preston just smiles big when he sees her.

Here are pics of our precious little gem!
