Some new pictures

Here's a picture of Riley at 5 days old. Her color is starting to look normal. When she was born, she was purple from head to toe. The purple when away pretty quickly, but her skin was still reddish. Over the next few days, her she turned jaundiced. After the fourth day, the jaundice went away and her skin started to peel and the "stork bites" showed up. Now, not so much.

I thought I'd show a couple of pictures of Colleen just three days before Riley was born:Can you believe this? From the side, she is obviously pregnant, but from the front, you can hardly tell. Then, three days later, mom is giving her a big hug!

And finally, A BIG thank you!
Grandma Sharon was gracious enough to take a "vacation" and stay with us for the first week. What a tremendous help she has been. Food magically appears when we are hungry and clean cloths are always filling the drawers and closet.
