Well, she is HERE! I have a TON of pictures to get uploaded and sorted before I can do a "proper" blog post, but I know there are many anxious folks out there dying to get a peak at Matine.
These are some beautiful pics taken by our friends Meggan and Tony last night when they visited us. So, take a look at these for a few more hours before I can get some of ours up and out!
Matine is absolutely an angel. She was born on Monday, May 11th at 1:51 am. She was 7 lbs 2 oz and 19 in long! She is amazingly content, sweet and has been such an easy baby so far.
She is eating great, sleeping great, and melting our hearts with every little grunt or movement.
We got home from the hospital this morning. She was greeted by her three brothers with open paws. Surprisingly, BRUTUS (the old grumpy man) will not let her out of his site and is sleeping next to her bed, or next to me, or following Pete around (wherever Matine goes, so shall Brutus apparently)!
She has already met MANY of our amazing friends and we are thrilled to be home with her... Here it all begins!
So, without further ado - click on this link for some pictures Meggan took until I can get some up for you... http://pronghorntrail.blogspot.com/2009/05/matine-john-howell-peter-and-brookes.html
We love you all!
Pete, Brooke and Matine Howell
