I had contractions all weekend that did nothing. My doctor said, "hey, you are getting tired, and in the past breaking your water has worked well, so let's head up to the hospital and break your water and see where that takes us."
So we headed up to the hospital where we got the best view in the house.
Especially at sunset.
And after about 6 hours of increasingly difficult labor and pushing we got our little baby. And I did it all natural.
The kids came up about noon today to meet their new baby sister.
Daddy's pretty happy too.
We came home this afternoon and I feel pretty good.
We love her already. David is taking good care of me and the kids. It is so good to have her here.

Katie is sooo cute. You really make beautiful children! I see my headband in ana's hands, I forgot to tell you that she really wanted to borrow a headband so i let her choose. I have a hot pink one with a flower, a purple one with a flower and a silver fabric one. And that is the one she chose! haha funny girl.
Congratulations. She is so cute. Those pictures of Jack and Ana with her are priceless.
She is so Beautiful!!! And everyone looks so very happy! I'm glad you're feeling good and that Dave is taking good care of you. He's pretty cool like that. I love you all a million buckets of ice cream!!
Cute name & even cuter baby! Oh, so precious and new!! You're pretty amazing to have done it natural & to already be home! And the view from your hospital room? Amazing. I'm so happy for you & your growing family.

WooHOO!! I'm so happy she's here too!! :) She is SUCH A CUTIE!! I love seeing your kids hold her--thats how my kids will be some day! Jake REALLY reminds me of Charlie in these pictures! You're kids are getting so big! Katie is soo cute and I'm so happy for you guys! And way to go on the natural labor! You inspire me! (We'll see how much weight it carries when I'm actually laboring though! :) How is Dave's second year going? Hope all is well and that you're back to your self soon! CONGRATS from all of us! :)
What a sweet heart!!! Bring her back to Idaho so I can kiss those little cheeks! What a fabulous name as well--I know a Katie Larsen too :)! It suits her. I'm glad everything went well for you. We can't wait to meet her. Maybe Christmas this year? Please? We love you all!
We almost made her middle name Bakke but thought that might be a little much.
Gorgeous baby. She looks like Jack in the second picture but more like Ana in the last one. That must mean she's a Larsen! I'm glad you are doing good. Love you.
P.S. Cute coming-home outfit!
Such a little doll!!! I love how proud Jack and Ana look holding their brand new sister. Can't wait to see her , and YOU! Oh and aren't the views from the labor and delivery floor just stunning?!
Congratulations!!! What a sweet little baby! Hope all is going well and you are getting some sleep. :)
bwahaha! Bakke? Poor little girl would have been scarred for life. Good choice to do Grace instead! Can't wait for more pics!
