Here are some more cute pics...wish I had time to write more but unfortunately the girls are keeping me quite busy...

Welcome Abigail Grace Whitacre

Abigail Grace Whitacre

We proudly announce the birth of our third daughter, Abigail Grace Whitacre. Abigail was born May 26, 2008 at 11:29 AM. She weighed 8 lbs. 6 oz. and is 21 1/2 inches long. She is absolutely perfect and loved by all (especially her big sisters!).

Mommy is very very tired since this little one likes to nurse every 2 hours so I will continue this post later...

This picture was taken between contractions...before heading to the hospital!

Abbie and her Daddy....................Abbie's big sisters finally being able to meet her!

Headed Home!

Apparently Abbie does not want to go home...almost like she knows the chaos she will be entering into!! :)

HERE SHE COMES!!!!

Getting closer...

Well in less than two weeks (hopefully) we will be welcoming little Abigail Grace to the world...we are very excited but mommy is very nervous. There are times I feel I can't even handle the two I have right now!! :) But I know God will give me the strength to be a mother of 3! I think the girls have some understanding of what will be happening-well as much as two year olds can. If my belly is showing the girls will always come and kiss it. Ella will also scratch my belly which feels so good!!! She's so darn cute. Here are a couple of cute pics from this weekend!

My little Ella...

Having a biological child and then an adopted child it's sometimes hard not to compare how different the experience can be...not better or worse but different. One of the biggest differences I find is when they call me Mommy. Now don't get me wrong I love it when my dear little Sophie calls me mommy...but there is something about when Ella says that word that gives me the chills and makes me tear up...I think to myself for two years this little angel had no concept of a mommy or daddy-not that she did not have nannies that loved her dearly-but nannies cannot take place of a mommy. And now six months later she will wrap her little arms around my neck and say, "lub u Mommy!" without thinking twice! My dear little Ella is such an angel and words cannot explain how blessed I am to have her as my daughter! And it goes without saying that I am blessed to have my little Sophie as well!!!

Enjoying Spring time...

Yay!!! It's spring time in upstate NY!!! The tulips have blossomed, the birds are singing, and the girls get to go outside and play....gotta love spring!!
