I'm still amazed at the miracle of new babies. Cali is beautiful and I'm so excited to have her added to our family. I'm so glad I got to check on my girls - both Mom and the new little one to make sure, in person, that you were Okay.
She looks soooo tiny in that carseat. WOW.
I LOVE YOU ALL, MOM

She is beautiful! Congratulations! :) Is there anything better than new babies? Maybe big brothers and sisters falling in love with new babies.

Enjoy your babymoon!

Those fingers! sigh...

Hooray!!! A new neice. My kids said, "She's only this big!" and showed two fingers an inch apart. You forget how small they start out. Congratulations, and you looked great in your hospital pictures. She's going to be another beautiful Duke child.
