We're Alive!

We have been home as a family of three for just a little over a week.  We've been really quiet on the blog and Facebook fronts because we are still learning how to be a family together!  If you are a parent, then you understand that so far we are trying to figure out how to change all of the diapers and take care of Mikayla's needs...not to mention find some time to feed and clean ourselves too.  Thankfully, we are feeling less and less sleep deprived as the days go by, and we are finding a routine that works for all of us.  I have tons of posts that I have already written in my head.  Now it is just a matter of getting the fingers to the keys...stay tuned.  For now, enjoy some pictures that might take the edge off a little!
