Misha's new baby sister has arrived*Chris added MORE pics

Baby Annika Joy made her debut yesterday evening - Wednesday Sept 28th. She weighed 6-6 and is short but I don't remember how short.

Misha has been staying here with us while they waited for the birth. We went to the hospital this evening to see Annika and let Misha meet her. I thought you guys would enjoy seeing some pictures....so welcome to our family....

Here I am....(sirrahbed)

Thank you stopping to look - I really hope you enjoyed your visit :D

edit: I forgot to add that Annika has even more PT family...Aunties Missy (sirrahsim) and Devon (sirrahved) Missy is married to Uncle Paul who is Carol's son & Christine's brother. Uncle Jason is my other son & is married to Devon.

Gosh! It seems like she just announced her pregnancy! (I am sure it doesn't feel that way to Christine!)

Congratulations all around!!!

Congrats! She is beautiful.

Congratulations everyone!

It does seem like time passed so quickly. Chris would probably disagree....

I thought the same thing. I was expecting to read that she came early. Gosh time flies when you aren't the one carrying the baby! LOL!

Anika is just beautiful and you have such a sweet family. Congratulations to all of you. Misha will have so much fun being a big sister. Maybe she'll even get to see what a real diaper change looks like. LOL! You are doubly blessed! :)

To all! :D

Oh congratulations to the entire extended family on the perfectly beautiful baby!!! She is sooooo precious!!!! :)

Thank you guys! She was a few weeks early but still considered full term. We are home and slowly adjusting. It was a very long labor and I'm exhausted. She was 19 in long- even the premie clothes are big on her! Here are a couple more pictures:

Right now Annika is a novelty! She has been very helpful with the diaper changes and brining me things and bringing Annika toys. She is having a hard time falling asleep at night- that started when we got home from the hospital. I think any real issues will come out in the next week or so once Misha realizes that Annika is here to stay! I've been trying to get some extra one on one time with Misha and that seems to help. I'm getting good at nursing and reading books with Misha also! :D

I'm just now seeing this!!!! She came early didn't she? If I remember right I think I was saying Oct 17th was a good birthday. (he he, that is mine :o )

Congratulations. She is adorable!!!!

Debbie - I agree, you look wonderful!!!!

Yep- she is early! I was due Oct 15- I was still considered full-term but barely!
