We are officially home with baby Grace! It was so exciting to bring her home yesterday. Big Brother Joel was waiting for us with Nonie and Pop Pop. Grace had a Jarosch birthday cake and balloons waiting for her. Joel has been doing really well. He was excited to hold her last night, and he kept saying "Gwacie CUTE!" He likes to give her kisses and point out her body parts. We're working on keeping him away from the eyes! So far, he's been a great big brother!
Grace is fitting right into the family. She's been eating and sleeping great! We are so excited that she is finally here. She is constantly being held and loved on!
My mom and dad have been a huge help with Joel. I haven't had to lift a finger since I got home. It's so great to have them here. Joel is going to be crushed when it's time for them to go back to Colorado. He already told me he wants to go to Colorado too!
We loved visiting and talking with so many of you in the hospital. We are so lucky to have such great friends and family. Grace has already been spoiled with the cutest baby girl clothes and sweet gifts!
We are going to keep trying to update the blog with new pictures so you can all watch Joel and Grace as they grow!
We know that it's going to be a busy year transitioning to life with two kids, but we are loving it so far. Everything has gone so well, and we feel so blessed to have a healthy, happy baby. Thank you all for your prayers for our family and our sweet little girl. We love you all!
Love,
The DeBoer FOUR (Curt, Amy, Joel & Grace)
