Grace's homecoming


Grace came home from the hospital on Friday on Halloween day. It was such a beautiful weekend for her homecoming, with weather near the 70s. We took a little walk in the park nearby, but she didn't see much of it as she has been sleeping a lot, recovering from her exciting several first days.

Scary skunks!


We brought Grace home from the hospital on Halloween, and were able to take Dylan around the neighborhood on Cate's favorite holiday! Despite only being two days since Grace's birth, Cate wanted to make it out for a few houses to see Dylan as a skunk (sometimes a scary skunk when he said "Boo!" instead of "Trick or Treat!"). He didn't really like the costume, but he received many compliments, especially when they watched him walk away from the house and saw his little tail swinging in the air.

Amazing Grace!


We are so excited to share with all of you that Helen Burr Grace entered the world on October 29th at 9:54pm.  Grace weighed a healthy 8 pounds, 4 ounces and is 20 inches long. Labor was relatively short, less than four hours. Dylan came the next morning to meet his little sister; he is already a fantastic big brother.
