Hello Ivy Jill Marble!

We have another wonderful addition to our family. Meet Ivy Jill Marble!Her middle name is from her Grandma Jill. Nate and Katie had their third little girl on Thursday. Isn't she beautiful! She opened her eyes and looked at us shortly before we left. She has the darkest eyes. I think they look like onyx. so dark, you can almost see your reflection in them. All the babies I have seen have blue eyes. Not this one!

We went up to Tremonton and spent the afternoon with the family. They are all so happy to have her here with us. Her older sister Sophie informed us the now SHE is a big sister, just like Ellie! Both Ellie and Sophie are very good with her. They are even able to hold her - sitting on a couch with a pillow to help with a support but still. They are very careful with her.

Here they are eating lunch. We caught Ellie with her mouth full but Sophie was ready and willing to pose!

Mom is doing amazingly well! She was helping the girls put together a puzzle in this picture. Look how happy and content she is. What a graceful and brave woman!

Here is my youngest brother Nate. He is a great dad and husband. Here he is washing off a mint for Elie, she dropped it on the floor and it had hair on it.

Here is Uncle Ken reading a book with Sophie. As soon as we were in the front room, she asked for her uncle ken to read with her. I think she kind of likes him...who can blame her. Look how cute he is!


Welcome to the world little feet!
