My posts are a little out of order because Miss Maylin decided to come 2 weeks early and I wasn't able to update the blog prior to her arrival. Below are pictures from the baby shower that my sister, Robin, and Mary hosted for me. By the way, the shower happened just in the nick of time - I had Maylin 4 days later.
Awesome Diaper Cake made by Robin (with Gracie's help)
Introducing Maylin Muriel Young. She was born on August 1st at 4:33 pm, weighing 6 pounds and 1 ounce. Her and Mom are both doing well. What started out as a doctor appointment for Amy turned into a full day of bringing this new bundle of joy into our lives. We couldn't be happier and our family is so much better now that we have grown yet again. Here is a quick video of Maylin.
and of course some pictures as well.
Then someone came by for a visit. She was very excited to be the big sister and her visit was
very special. It was great to get these girls together for the first time.
Brian and Morgan brought home pink flowers in a purple vase (per Morgan's instructions) for my birthday, along with some very sweet cards. My co-workers treated me to lunch at Celebration Restaurant and that evening we had dinner at Twisted Root Burger with Lisa and Jeff.

Brian and my brother Jeff spent last weekend putting in the wood floors for Morgan's big girl room. They did an awesome job! The room is really coming together.
