We're home!

OK, we have TONS of pictures to post, so I'm starting with these. I didn't see Jason in any of these...he must have been taking a lot of these. I assure you that he was there! So, after a 2 hour, un-intentional "natural" labor, Brooke Noelle Maupin was born!!
She weighed 6 lbs., 13 oz. and is so beautiful!
Grandpa Maupin and the boys hanging with Brooke.
Papa and the boys checking her out thru the glass while she's getting all cleaned up. They were amazed and in awe of her.
Here are the boys the first time they saw her. Apparently, they were walking thru the door when the nurse was bringing her to the nursery and they ran into each other. So, the nurse just plopped her down in the arms. I'm glad I wasn't there because just looking at the picture makes me nervous!!
Here is Nana unwrapping her this morning so the boys could check her out.
Here is my dad, Papa. His first grand-daughter. He had 2 daughters and he was the best dad for girls, so he'll know just what to do! He is the best at killing bugs, fixing hair, and learning new dance moves and cheers....I'm sure his granddaughter will have him dancing soon.
And, the two proud brothers...I was a little surprised at the interest they have taken to her. They are so sweet and everytime they come into the room, they ask, "Where's Brooke?" They've just got to check on her wherabouts.
I had so many pictures to choose from.......I have some of Grandma Maupin with her granddaughter and tons of others that we will post soon! So.....who does she look like?

She is beautiful! Truly beautiful! I love her dark hair!!!
I am so glad that you are home and settled.
Ansley and I came up to P. Presby to see you on Saturday, and they told us you were not there. How did I not think to ask you where you were delivering? I was thinking you delivered at P.P. with the boys and just assumed you would be there again. My bad!
Anyhow, I am so sorry our outing was to the wrong place. We hope we can come by and see you over Christmas break!
