Home at Last!

We were so excited to come home from Boise with Clara......and also to see Emma and Samantha!  We hadn't seen them for twelve days and we were missing them desperately!  They had a wonderful time being with Gramma and Grampa as well as aunts, uncles, and cousins - but not being together as a family was hard on us!  Not to mention that Emma and Sam were so anxious to meet their new little sister!
We are adjusting to life and having a newborn in the house again.  It has been a long time since we have had a new baby and although we are exhausted from many sleepless nights, it is a blessing to have a new addition.  Emma and Sam absolutely adore Clara.  They constantly ask if they can hold her, they make sure that mom feeds and changes her on time, and they are full of "Smotherly" love.  Samantha is especially happy to finally be a BIG sister!
Of course the camera is always ready to pick up any sweet shot of the baby.  Emma and I thought that this particular pose from Clara was a definite camera-ready opportunity.
All of these moments are too precious and I don't want to miss any of them!  Being a mommy is the joy of my life and I am so blessed to have these beautiful children!

Love the picture of the three girls and Clara's "model" pose! So cute! I can tell she is already growing.
