Berkley Kate Beal

Berkley Kate Beal made her entrance to the world on June 28, 2010 at 7:33AM! We were SO excited to meet her and have enjoyed every minute with her since then. We went in to the hospital a 5AM and in to surgery at 7AM...33 short minutes later Berkley arrived. Definitely an easier entrance than Brookelynn! Here are a LOT of pictures of our stay at the hospital...

The first of MANY pictures of our girl!

Proud mom & dad looking at our precious new baby girl! It was such a sweet time to just hold her on my chest before she met everyone else.

After we spent time with Berkley in the OR Bailey took Berkley to the nursery window so that the rest of the family could get their first look at her. Brookelynn was SO excited to see her Daddy and little sister, but she was SO sad to see him leave.

This is a picture of Brookelynn after her daddy left.

When we were transferred to our room we had Brookelynn come in to meet her little sister. She wasn't really sure about it. She was so excited to be in the same room with Mom and Dad but did not like to see mom hooked up to all of the machines and in the big bed. She didn't know what was going on.

She was a lot more interested in Berkley when she wasn't in bed with me. She has been the best big sister and such a great helper! This was the first time that she held her. In the other room with Gigi.

Berkley's first bath!
She wasn't a fan!

I picked up this fishing game at Target for Brookelynn to play with in the hospital...it was the best $2.50 that I have spent in a while. It was so much fun for her to play with at each of her visits!

Berkley with her little sis shirt that my sister Jenn made. Brookelynn had a matching big sis shirt! I thought that they were SO cute! Jenn you are so talented!

Berkley came back from the nursery on Tuesday morning all clean from her night bath with this cute little hat on. I know...it is a big bow (especially for me) but I thought it was so cute!

Mom and Berkley...I finally got to take that hospital gown off!

All scrunched up...

All dressed up and ready to go home! It was a good week in the hospital and we had so many sweet visitors but we were SO excited to get Berkley home and get Brookelynn back from grandparents. Berkley looked so pretty in her dress!

Wrapped up warm & tight...
