Welcome Addie!

Adelaide Anne (Addie) Peters was born Tuesday, June 17 at 11:29 am. She weighed 7 lb 2 oz and was 20 inches long. So far she has been a sweet baby, even putting up with a few "love pats" from her sister. Here are just a few pictures :-)

Oh my goodness!!! So much to say! I've just been periodically checking to see when the baby had come... Congratulations!!! First, I LOVE the name! And nice job on the alliteration for child number 2 just like number 1 - Greta Grace, Adelaide Anne... I like it :). Second, I can see a little of Greta as a newborn in Addie - the family resemblance :). Such a sweetheart and so beautiful. Third, I had Nurse Nancy too! She stayed past the end of her shift to deliver Payton - definitely a blessing to have her there. And Fourth, we miss you and are so excited to come home and meet little Addie! We love you!
Heather, Aaron, and Liv :)

1. she definately has kohlhepp features
2. you look incredible in your first family photo - can't believe you just had a baby
3. wow! what a miracle. I'm always struck when a baby comes into the world and you can't even believe that they were just hangin out like that in your belly. i'm so glad she decided to make an early appearance!!!

Right--so much to say! I echo all of those comments (at least the ones that can apply...) Holly, you did look great, trotting around like you were 3 months postpartum! And the pictures! I'm so jealous! I want a digital SLR! Beautiful. (Not to say that it doesn't take talent!) You guys are both great! And we had Nancy, too! I bet she's in a lot of bath photos! Also, Greta is adorable. I just watched the itsy bitsy spider video--she had great rhythm there at the end. And the chair pictures! Hilarious! Congratulations on your expanded family!
