Easter Skyping and Sister Black

We were able to Skype with our lovies in Iowa after church Easter Sunday, and while talking with everyone, wee Gracie slept contentedly on the sofa. I must add here that her name is officially 

Gracie Mae Elizabeth (the Mae after Grandma Ida Mae).

She looks so like William, such a love! and at 8+ birth pounds, she is a contented baby, sleeping and eating well, and an all-around blessing!

The girls adore her, and Libby has taken on the roll as a second mommy, helping and worrying so much over her, that Steph has had to insist she take some time off on a regular basis to play. Teag on the other hand has had some adjusting to do. It's tough to do all your potty work alone while mommy is nursing, but she's learning. It's always an adjustment for everyone when a new baby comes.

Teagan showed us her "No David" book (didn't have my camera for that part. Bother!) which we were told she knows by heart now. A very fitting title for that girlie! She was otherwise not at all interested in us, so we didn't see her the remainder of the time. Then, Libby (above) demonstrated her new skill - crossing her eyes!  Amazing!

So wonderful to see and hear everyone! We LOVE you! and can't wait until May!

As a bonus, Beth spent Easter with a member family and I got this lovely photo on my mobile!
