meet Betsy Talei

Photobucket

Our little Betsy was born on April 27th, at 5:09 in the morning. Weight: 8 lb 4.4 oz. (most of her weight being in her cheeks!) Height: 19 1/2 in. We are so happy that she is finally here! She is as sweet as can be.

My two little babies. Tristan loved the present he got from his little sister.

Instant buddies. Betsy was thrilled to have finally met her brother. (Please note that the mullet will be gone soon. We've been too busy to worry about haircuts right now).

She may outgrow him in no time!

Betsy was the star of the bath class demonstration. She was so great!

This is our attempt at a family photo. Can you guess who didn't want to cooperate?
