Mae Hope Edwards

Meet baby Mae.

She was born December 20th (Nana's bday) at 12:33am.

She weighed 9.1 pounds and was 20.5 inches







Since she's the size of a 3 month old so we've been able to settle down to a "new normal" way of life pretty easily. We skipped the typical newborn stage of life; eating, crying and pooping every hour. She eats well, sleeps pretty well and doesn't seem to mind the loud chaos that flows through our house all day.

Avila adores her. She has her "babies" with her at all times. Anytime I do anything for Mae, Avila is right behind me with her babies. We've bathed, fed and changed diapers on everyone of them multiple times.

Emma noticed there is a new creature in the house, but isn't that intersted. Pretty sure she would have rather had a new puppy.

And as our Christmas tradition goes we have sick kiddos on Christmas Eve. Emma has a sinus infection and a double ear infection. Avila has croup (cough, fever, and labored breathing). Let's pray Mae doesn't want to join in on our tradition this year.

Merry Christmas everyone!
