Too much time has passed!

Hi friends and family! Our first 6 or so months of being a family of four has been quite busy! We had no idea that adding a beautiful girl to our family along side an ever so energetic little boy would be so fun (and so tiring if you ask mom!). Here are some pictures from recently. Enjoy!

Charlotte - One Month Old

It has been awhile once again since we have had the time to post pictures for you - our family and friends.

Charlotte is doing great! At her one month appointment she weighed in at 10lb 12 oz and 22.5 inches long. She is in the 95th percentile for height and weight. She is eating well and sleeping at night for about 7 hours at a time.

Enjoy this chronology of her first month:

Welcome Charlotte!

It has been awhile since we posted - we've been a bit busy! On 7/22/2009 we welcomed Charlotte Ryan Judd to our family. She weighed in at 8lb 6oz and 20 3/4 inches long. She is home and doing well.

Rachael is feeling great (although tired) but could not have asked for a better delivery. Dad is doing great and is completely smitten with the new girl in the house. Keller is a great big brother. He wakes up every morning and says "Hey Girl!".

We couldn't have made it these many months without the love of our friends and family. We are so blessed to have them with us on the journey!

Enjoy this little video of Charlotte's first week!
