We are home now and Anna Claire has a tummy full and is sleeping. We took this picture before leaving the hospital. The gown she is wearing is the same one I wore when I came home from the hospital (my sister and niece wore it as well). It was cold outside so we weren't able to get any pictures of us "coming home."
Last night, Mike read to her out of his newest Backpacker magazine. She knows all about how to find a pair of perfect fitting hiking boots now.
As I sit typing this, Anna Claire is stirring a bit...it's so fun to have these new noises in our house! We are thankful to the Lord for our daughter and that she is finally home!
PS. Pictures of the nursery to come! I know you have been waiting!

I LOVE seeing these pictures... my heart is overcome with joy for you and Mike and Anna Claire! We love you all so much and I can't wait to spend the week with you.
Oh..my what a special time for you both...our first baby bringing them home was so special and it went so fast..it's slow when you are in it but then you blink and it's gone..savor it!
So happy for you all!

Welcome home! I have to ditto what Sandy toes said...it seems like yesterday that I brought my first baby home, how fast 21 years have gone by! Enjoy these moments, everything else can wait!
This is so beautiful! Tears of joy from us for sure. I love you having your Anna Claire's sounds in your home too! :) Enjoy and we'll keep praying. You're smart to be cautious - we were and it is worth it. :) Hugs!
These pictures are so great! I'm so happy last night was so good and that now you are home! I can't wait to see the nursery pics and to see sweet Anna Claire in her crib. :)
Congratulations- you are truly blessed!

Can't wait to see you. Can't wait to bring you a long-overdue dinner. We are in Ohio now, but head home on Sunday. I'll call you next week. xoxxo
She's precious!! And I'm sure she is even moreso in person! God bless this sweet little girl!
I love that her daddy is reading to her from a backpacking magazine...too cute!
Take care of yourself, and savor every single moment! Lots of love and prayers to y'all!
I'm so happy that you guys are home. Just started following your blog recently! Now the fun really begins! Enjoy every moment and take tons of pictures... especially pictures that capture the teeny tiny details of Anna Claire. :) I wish you guys the best!
YAY! A new baby in your life is like the world beginning all over again fresh and new! I can't wait to see all the wonderful pictures of Anna Claire settling into her home!
Very, very exciting! I'll be praying for all of you tonight. :-)
Congrats! I am so happy for you guys! It is so exciting to bring a new baby home. I remember bringing my firstborn home like it was yesterday and I am with everyone else...it goes by sooo fast...too fast. So cherish every minute. I will keep you in my prayers. :)
Oh how exciting! She is beautiful. I would love to be a fly on the wall tonight! I think the first night we had our first child home we didn't sleep at all, it was way too exciting and I was way too nervous.
Many, many blessings for precious moments ahead!
You are beautiful! Both you and Anna Claire! Blessings, Cheryl
I'm so excited for you that your little girl is home! I've been away from blogland for a couple of weeks, but just caught up on your posts of her progress and was so happy to hear that your little princess is doing so well! I hope you are enjoying these first days at home as a family of 3! I read on Christy's blog that she is coming to stay with you for a week! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time visiting and enjoying Anna Claire!
How awesome!!! I'm sooo excited for you.
Yay! So glad to hear! The picture of Mike reading to her is precious...Can't wait to hear about her first week at home!
