Happy St. Patrick's Day

Well, we survived our first weekend as parents with the help of Kara's mom, and are totally loving it. Brian's sister Kelly got Addie this outfit and we put it on her last night for a pre-St. Patrick's Day Dinner with Brian's family.

She's here!!

Addison Kate Costello arrived happy and healthy on March 13, 2008 @ 8:26 am. She weighed in at 8lbs 8oz and measured 20 1/2 inches.

We're not biased or anything, but she is the most gorgeous baby on earth. Look! The pictures prove it! We can't wait to put bows and other hair accessories in her beautiful full head of hair.

Brian is in love again. He can't stop staring at her and saying, "Wow! Shes' ours!"

After lunch food coma!!

The Costello Family ready to go home from the hospital. We look a little tired huh?

Addie is bundled up and ready to come home from the hospital. (Friday night March 14)

Addie staring at mom this morning after her feeding. See! We told you she is beautiful!!

From couple to family...

So today is the last day Brian and I will be a couple. Our last day kid free, we had our last night with uninterrupted sleeping, and our last day of just the two of us. Scary thoughts, but I am so excited to finally have a baby to make us a family and my husband a dad...he's waited for so long. We can't wait to meet this girl and finally give her a name. Tonight we check into the hospital to be induced and finally get this girl going. I guess she is taking after her mom instead of her dad and taking all the time in the world to get here. Hopefully this picture is the last time she'll be photographed inside my tummy. Wish us luck!

Worst bloggers in history!

So, we just may be the worst bloggers in the history of blogging. I have no good excuse, just busy. But, now that I am finally off of work and ready for this baby, I have no excuses not to update this thing. So here's a quick update of the last 3 months. We had our last holiday season kid free, our 5 year wedding anniversary in Jan, my 29th birthday in Jan, finally finished the baby's room (that was fun...not really), learned how to put a carseat in the car, realized our daughter has more shoes, clothes, and stuff than she'll ever need and are now just waiting, waiting and waiting for this girl to get here. By the way, lets hope the modern world of technology is right and this baby is really a girl, because if not, our son is really going to have to be open minded in his clothing selections!
