Well, I have been offline for awhile. But, I am back and had my baby. I had a baby girl, Natalia Lee on April 29th. She was 7lbs 9oz and 19 inches long. She is doing wonderful and gaining weight. She is a little peanut!!
She is so different then my boys were, I feel like this is my first child. My boys are slowly adjusting ( ages 9,4, and 2) and so am I.

Congrats to you! A little girl, how great. Hope she gives her brothers a run for their money! I have a girl, she is 4 and 1/2. Just wait til she starts talking. She will see the world so differently it will make you smile.

thank you.
I know I can't wait to see her personality! It is the teenage years that make me nervous.

She was born on my daughters birthday! My daughter turned 5 on April 19th! Congratulations on the birth of your baby. I am sure you will all adjust soon and those boys will be very protective of their little baby sister.

Wow, congratulations on your new baby girl. I am so happy for you. I had to admit, a bit jealous too. I just lost my baby through miscarriage recently, (April 23rd) and still grieving for it. I am 43 years old and got married late. When I found out that I was pregnant, I was so happy for the miracle because it was such a blessing for me at my age. But then, it happened. But I am moving on. I know God has other plan for me and I want to keep the faith. Congratulations again. God bless you and your little angel.

thank you and I am sorry for your loss. I have had 8 miscarriages and 4 live births. I truly believe that god had another plan at that time for me. I know how hard it is but let yourself grieve and go through the phases. I will keep you in my prayers.

congratulation tamara. looking at the photo of your baby brings back a lot of memories when i first saw my son in the nursery. it brings me pride and joy. babies look alike i can say. you can not tell if it is a boy or a girl when you only see the face. babies are angels. so cute and they make us smile. it is not easy to be a parent specially when a baby is that young.

Aww she looks so cute. I cannot imagine how you will cope with 4 children, I have enough trouble with my twins! I guess you are used to three children and your eldest is less dependent now. I hope that everything goes well for you and she starts sleeping through soon!

Aaaaw, she's absolutely beautiful! Congrats on the new bundle! I understand how interesting the transition period is when a new little one is introduced into the household. And I also understand how no matter how many you have, it still seems so very new and unusual when a new one arrives. I bet after they get used to her a little more, big brothers will love the stuffin' out of their little sister--and will get to that point when they're all older where 'Nobody better mess with my lil' sister!'
Welcome back to mylot! Here's hoping that your beautiful little one will learn quickly the difference between night and day, what she is supposed to do during each, and gives mom a little R&R time so you can sleep (and keep checking in here occasionally too).

Congratulations! She is beautiful. I have a 6 month old daughter and yes she is SO much different than my son that is now 2. He was such a laid back baby and she isn't. Now that she is more alert and trying to play with toys my son is very interested in her, he wants to play with her and hold her, it's so sweet and exciting. I can't imagine throwing a 4 yr old and 9 yr old into the mix though. I do have a 12 yr old and just wait til our girls get that age. Sometimes my 12 yr old give me more grief than the two little ones combined. :)
Good luck to you and enjoy that little girl!
