Well, it's official (and already feels a little normal) that we are a family of four! Morgan made her debut after about 7 hours from the start of Pitocin to when she came out. The epidural worked great (praise the Lord!!) and I'm feeling okay. We've gotten at least a couple hours of sleep in a row each night, so we can't complain! And, what everyone is wanting to see...pictures!
Here's the big sister. She was a trooper and stayed up at the hospital without a nap, and in a decent mood. She has a football under her shirt and kept patting it like she was pregnant. She kept the nursing staff pretty entertained!
Here's me and Morgan shortly after she got cleaned up.
Morgan, nice and toasty in the warmer.
Morgan in "real clothes" yesterday. The bow and hat I brought didn't fit her "petite" head, which bugged me at first, but I'm okay with it now!
Yesterday afternoon, before we left the hospital.
My mom is here helping us for the week, which is great! Mallory is getting used to Morgan a little more each time she sees her. This morning she actually called her by name (instead of "baby") and gave her kisses on her head. She still needs to learn the word "gentle", but she's a good big sister so far!*Thanks for taking care of the update Tuesday, Uncle Wade!!*

Congratulations! Morgan is so beautiful, and I'm so glad to hear that everything went well. Thanks for the pictures!
Wow! She's gorgeous! And you looked fabulous for just having given birth! Your new family is precious. May God bless you immensely!
She is a doll just like big sister!! I am glad all is going so well. I can't wait until Meredith and I can make it down to see you. You will have to keep me posted on how it is with two little ones. Congrats again and love you guys!!
YEAH FOR THE PICTURES!! Seems like just yesterday we were visiting you, Brad, and Miss Mallory in the hospital! Y'all are too cute!
Finally!! I've been upping your visitor counter on the right hourly waiting for some pictures!! She is beautiful!!! Congratulations!! I'm so excited for you guys!! Mallory is PRECIOUS!!! She is going to make everyone laugh like her momma.
First and foremost...look at Brad sporting the pink shirt again! I thought he said he'd never wear it again!!! :)
More importantly, she is adorable! That picture with her eyes open is so sweet. I don't think she looks like Mallory at all in that one. As Mom says, she'll look like herself.
Sounds like you're already a pro at being a mother of two. Can't wait for the weekend Christmas!
Morgan is a very pretty, sweet baby! And wow, you look so awesome! I can't believe you gave birth and looked that great! I'm so glad that you have taken well to being a momma of 2. Congratulations!
She's precious!
Can't wait to see her in person this weekend!
