Ruthie's First Week

Ruthie's first week, (mostly) in pictures...

Not so sure about this being born business:

A little happier:

Dad/daughter selfie:

We're obviously super happy about her arrival (3 days late, ahem):

(Sunday afternoon) Marveling over her tiny-ness:

Bubby making mischief in the hospital room:

Four kids (gulp):

Ford had this tranced look on his face in every single picture while he was holding her:

Lorelei didn't want to hold her at first (I think she was a little freaked out by how small Ruthie is). But once she saw that Bubby could handle it, she took a turn (and LOVED it). I predict these two will have a special bond:

This is real life, people (I feel like much of Chet's and my time is spent restraining Bubby from various things):

Monday (2 days old):

Tuesday (preparing to leave the hospital):

Home(!):

Tuesday night, sisters keeping watch:

Thursday:

Friday morning:

"I want to hold it!":

"Ahh, YOU hold it!":

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

She's beautiful, and I love seeing the siblings loving on her too! I know you won't have much time to blog, but keep sharing the pics as she grows :)
love y'all!
