Baby Shoshana

Welcome to the world, Shoshana Ensley. Two weeks before my due date I left work to go to the gym and my water broke. Perfect timing...I picked Spencer up at daycare, we dropped him at our neighbors, dropped Barkley at our other neighbors and off to the hospital we went. They had to induce labor and by 3:35 pm the next day (Tuesday, Jan 26) we welcomed baby Shoshana into our lives (for those of you wanting stats, she weighed in at 6 lbs 2 oz and was 19-1/4"...not the almost 7.5 lbs they told us last Friday!).

She is so sweet and a very easy baby. Spencer has become a superstar big brother - he likes to give her kisses, burp her and help change her diapers (sometimes). Aside from the middle of the night feedings, everything has gone really smoothly with our new bundle of joy!

Not to be left out, here is a picture of Spencer with the cowboy hat we bought him at the stock show several days before his sister came. There are a few more very funny pictures in this series but I think they fall under the category of too pornographic for the internet (we'll save those for his wedding!).
