Introducing....

Alyssa became a big sister on Sunday. Sydney Joy joined our family at 9:08am September 27th. She weighed 7lbs 10 oz and is 19 1/2 inches long. She has a head of dark hair and looks very much like her big sister did when she was born. So far, she's been an angel baby. Hardly a peep out of her. She sleeps pretty well at night and is content to be held or even placed in her swing while big sister Allie gets her cuddle time too. At her first appointment, Sydney was already back to her birth weight, so she's growing well.

Allie seems to love her baby sister but there has been some jealousy. Allie is not quite her normal self. She's been pushing her limits a bit and has been more sensitive than normal. This is certainly a big adjustment for her, but for the most part, she's handling it ok. We'll see what the next few weeks/months bring.

We'd like you to meet Sydney:
