A lot has happened

So a lot has happened in the last couple of days. Let's see where to begin...
Friday our newest little addition was born, Emily. She is the cutest thing you have ever seen. She has the eating thing down pat - now we just need to work on the sleeping. Another big event happened on Friday - we bought a car (actually it is a van). We bought a 2005 Honda Odyssey in California. It is going to ship to us this week. We are very excited and can't wait to have a vehicle that will carry our family comfortably. Speaking of cars - 2 weeks ago yesterday we were in a little bit of a fender-bender (preggers wife and all). We were sitting at the intersection of Cambell and Plano waiting to turn left. Our arrow turned green, and I went. Meanwhile an elderly woman decided that she would run the red light. Luckily she did not hit us, but we hit her on her side. Everyone is okay and the police officer issued her a ticket for running the red light. So to make a long story short our car is currently in the shop getting fixed. So we are currently driving a rent car. Now back to your regular programming...
Saturday and Sunday I stayed in the hospital with Lindsey while Barbara, Mike and Jamie played tag team with Ben and Annie. Sunday afternoon we were discharged from the hospital and came home.
Monday to Saturday I took of from work and stayed home to help with things around the house. I actually have accomplished quite a bit. All of the neglect that I have been showing our house for the last 1 1/2 years has added up. I finally finished our entry hall with baseboards and trim and paint. I must say that it looks much better finished than it did unfinished.
Friday we took a day to go to the Dallas Arboretum and see Dallas Bloom(s). It was really fun and we had a great time.
Saturday was a very busy day and Ben and Annie did not get naps. So at dinner we had a little sleeping incident:
She's starting the famous head bob...













She's dropping quickly...













Down, down, down...













And finally comes to a rest on her food...













Does this remind you of anyone...

















So there you have it - like father, like daughter. Have a great week.
