baby violet is here!
born 1/20/2010 @ 11:00am7 lbs 12 oz & 20 inches long
our other little baby is doing pretty good. despite what this picture suggests, she only wanted me to hold her for about 30 seconds of her visit to the hospital. the rest of the time was spent ignoring the baby and eating her popcorn and dora fruit snacks. she was more concerned that she might possibly be at a doctor's office which she did not much like. once she left with my parents, i think she was practically relieved. she's been staying with them and, from what we hear, seems to be enjoying herself. lots of attention and freedom and no baby = olivia's dream right now.
notice the strategic to-the-side hold. a bit difficult with a 27lb child, but the alternative was 27lbs on top of my very recent c-section. not good.

Congratulations Abbie! Violet is a beautiful name! And that hair... precious! Take it easy and get some rest! HUGS!
i love that v is already sporting a cute outfit and she's less than 48 hours old. what a baby babe! u look great by the way! minus all of the needles, i.v.s and tubes.....those make me nervous just looking at you!
Oh she is just gorgeous! You have the prettiest babies. Violet is the best name ever (and she looks just like Adam!)
she is so cute. i just love it. and i love her name. olivia and violet--they're going to be best friends, which makes me happy. even though the hug lasted 30 seconds from olivia, i still think that picture is so precious. our babies are basically the same size. i can't believe they are here. hope you're feeling good and healing well. much love.
Oh, Abbie and Adam! (and Olivia) Your baby is GORGEOUS! What a beautiful little girl. Congratulations over and over again. Please let us know if we can help. We'd love to have Olivia over to play or bring some dinner or something. So happy for your family. -Hickens

I hope Olivia becomes a great big sister, and she will once violet starts moving & wanting to play.
Jake loves being around ABby now that she is 8 months old and can sort of play with him.
