She is Here!

On Monday, we welcomed our new baby girl, Brea Monet to our family. She weighed 8 pounds 2 ounces and was 20 inches long. She is gorgeous and we are so excited she is here and is healthy. I ended up being induced and was a little nervous about that, but labor was pretty quick and went really smoothly. London is adjusting to having her sissy around, but overall is doing really well with the adjustment. She just hasn't allowed me to get one of those cute "sibling pictures." You know what I am talking about ...the one where she kisses the baby, holds the baby, smiles at the baby. Well she isn't doing any of that yet, but she will and when she does I will post it!
The day before our big day

Yeah! I have been waiting for the new pics of my cute little neice! :) I think she looks like her aunt Mo too! (I think she even has a little look of Tanner in her-honest). Can't wait to meet her in person, and of course see all of you. :) She is a doll. We are so excited to have her as a part of our family! Love ya.

Congratulation, I can't believe she is here already. The second one is pretty crazy especially since the first is so young. I was excited to see what you named her since you had so much trouble the first time, I love the name. She is beautiful.

We are so happy for you. Having two girls is a lot of fun. Once London warms up to the idea they will be the best of friends. When you can I would love for you to come out and visit and I know that I am not the only one, (have we pressured you enough into coming?) Sorry I should not be like that but we would justlove to see the entire Anderson Fam.
Brea is so cute. It is fun to see the dark hair that your mom was talking about the other day. Makayla is here looking at the photos with me and she says that she loves Brea.
I am glad that you have Joyce in town and then Mo coming out. Having help adjusting to two is nice. It really is not bad it just takes some adjusting. I know that you will be great at it. Love you and give those girls kisses for us.

P.S. thanks for getting a picture of Marshall and tell him thank you for looking at the camera.
