Welcome to the World Sweet Rachel!

Meet our 1st niece!
Rachel Ann Wells
Born 8/19/09
8 lbs. 7 oz.
20 inches













Jen went into labor Tuesday night and had her at 6:26 am on Wednesday morning. We made some quick plans, canceled a few commitments and drove down to South Bend. It was a great day! We even missed the many tornadoes on our way home!







I can't get over her gorgeous dark hair! My kids never had this much hair and she even has more hair than Caleb does right now!
It was so thick and soft. I just love it! I really miss my sister and I wish I could do life with her! But she is happy and we will just have to share girl stories over the phone!








So happy with their new little girl!



















Proud Uncle Shawn!











My parents arrived in South Bend around 3 am to watch Colin at his house! They are so amazing! They are always so willing to drop everything, make sacrifices,and help wherever they can. Colin kept saying he would hold Rachel when they got home!








The biggest bummer was that the kids could not go in and see Rachel. They were so excited to see her because they love babies but it was hospital policy. They had to stay in the waiting room which Shawn and I took turns seeing Rachel. They did very well but it was so disappointing! After and yummy Mexican dinner we took them to a park to run off some energy.



Adrianna LOVES to climb on things!








Watching the ducks with Papa! I think there were probably about 100 or more in the pond!
