Welcome to the World Molly!!

We welcomed little Molly Pearl into our lives on April 8th (yes her actual due date!) She came very, very fast and it was a pretty uneventful labor and delivery. She was 21 inches and 8 lbs 6 oz- the exact same size as Owen- crazy!!!
We are slowly adjusting to life. It is a good thing that you forget how crazy you feel and how sleep deprived you become- or else you would never have any more kids!!!
We feel lucky and blessed to have her and Owen is learning that she is here to stay. Here are some pictures- I will post more as I become more settled in.
Love you all and appreciate all the support and help.

Wow, looks like she LOVED her bath! And you are gorgeous as ever.. even after giving birth! She is beautiful.. and seriously, if you need an Owen break, don't feel bad and send him on over.

Sarah,
She's so beautiful!!! I can't wait to hold her! Hopefully she turns out to be a little more content than Owen was. :) Let us know if you need anything, okay?

And again, I apologize in advance for your dinner tonight. I am having extreme anxiety knowing that me, a non-cook, will be taking dinner to an awesome cook...Oh the agony. Kory told me to tell you that if it sucks, we'll go buy you a pizza so you don't have to break the Sabbath. We'll take it for the team. LOL.

She does look a little like Owen, but not entirely (at least as far as I can tell). And some of us never ever have time to forget how stressful and sleep deprived you get. It's a good thing some of us forget birth control or else we would never have more children.
Hey, if you ever decide to return my phone call I will drive up there this week with dinner, I may even pick Brad up on the way so we can check out Molly and tell you how cute she is and let Norah and Lulu and Abram touch and sneeze on her and...no, we'll actually just look at her and leave you alone. Call me.

She's so cute Sarah-the first picture she looks just like Owen did, but the others I don't see hime as much. It looks like she's going to have your big eyes!

Sarah and Blake,

Congratulation! Molly is a cutie, I am happy that every thing went smooth and fast for you Sarah. Good luck with everything I know what an adjustment that second can be. Blake you need to call me sometime when things settle down so we can do lunch.

Hooray! I've been wondering all week how things went. I was actually going to call Jennie today to get any details...
I hear ya on the forgetting the sleep deprivation stuff! I wonder how much longer I'll have to wait to forget because (unlike Martha), I will not forget my BC ;)
I hope that you recover quickly and adjust easily to having two youngin's!
Love ya!
I wish I lived closer and I would make you dinner (it would probably be one of your recipes from college though:)
