We're reserving judgement on who she looks like for a few days since they seem to change so much in the beginning, but she looks a lot like both siblings at birth. Jacob was so excited to meet her and has already been down for a visit. He was a little leery of Mommy in the hospital bed, but wanted to get Riley her paci, pat her back and anything else he could think of to be a big helper! He's definitely a proud big brother - hopefully it will last! Mom's recovering well from c-section, and we promise to post more pictures over the next few days. Thanks so much for all the prayers and well wishes. We're so thankful for our latest little miracle!
