New Baby

Celia Jane Rasmussen
October 21, 2010
10:04 p.m.
8 lbs., 1 oz.
19 inches long

Greeted the next morning by siblings and cousins, none more excited than big sister, Jamie Beth.

This photo of Nate reminds me of another photo of another big brother holding a little sister.
Matthew was also 3 years, 8 months old when he became a big brother...

Calmly leaving the hospital.

Best position for a long nap.

Enthusiastically celebrating Halloween.

She does open her eyes! I took this photo of her tonight: almost three weeks old, a very quiet baby, channeling Grandmother Rasmussen a bit (according to her doting dad), possibly out-weighing her sister already (as observed by a certain uncle).
We like her very much.
