Welcoming Caroline

We had lots of visitors while I was in the hospital. It was great to have so many loved ones welcome Caroline to the world! However, we did have to have one day without visitors due to some headache issues I was having. My doctor also said I needed to get some rest! I had some wonderful friends who waited patiently until we got settled in at home to come see us. Here are some pictures of those who did come by to see us.

Whit...my favorite visitor everyday after school!
Landry and Dallas Porter

Serenity and Kathryn....not sure about that look Serenity has on her face!


My Grandmother Doris...Caroline is her second great-grandchild, but she's also about to have 3 more within the next 6 months!! Our cousin Ashley is expecting a little boy in April and then Sarah expecting a baby boy and a baby girl also in April! She is one proud Great Grandmother!




More Visitors

Madelyn, due in January with baby boy #2, came by to welcome Caroline
Uncle Allen & Aunt Linda

Caroline dressed in her Paty outfit and hat...so sweet!
Whit FINALLY got his ladybug pillow pet...this child has wanted one for months, literally! So, we decided it would make the perfect Big Brother present on the day Caroline was born!

The amazing women whom our baby girl is named after! Mom is actually Carolyn but was often called Caroline by her sister and Buddy's mom is June. We love our mommas and are so thankful for them and their love and support of us.


Our first picture as a family of four...much better than the family of three photo...keep scrolling down and you will see Whit's lovely "pose"



Me and my new baby girl!

Caroline June Turpin's Arrival!

Caroline arrived on December 6, 2010 at 7:43am. She weighed 6lbs, 7 ozs and was 19 1/2 inches long. We were watching the clock and hoping she would come at 7:44 because that's when Whit was born, only in the pm! But, she got here one minute earlier. (ignore the dates on these pictures!! somehow the date setting was wrong on the camera so it shows it as 12/5 but it was really 12/6!)





















Last Photo As Family of Three

Last photo of our family of three...isn't it lovely?? Whit with his finger up his nose! NICE!
Just before we headed to the hospital, we took a picture of me with our undecorated Christmas tree...I didn't take many profile pics while pregnant this time but I did have a pic while pregnant with Whit in front of our tree so I thought I should with Caroline too!
