Congratulations. I am so happy for you. You have beautiful babies and Lydia sure is beautiful. I totally understand all the feelings you mentioned about baby number 4 being your last. Chase is our last and it took me forever to take his newborn clothes out of the dresser it was hard to admit I didn't need to pack them away for the next park boy. And I cried when he finally learned to crawl. Its hard to believe that time goes so fast. Enjoy your beautiful little girl, I hope we get to see you when you're in town this summer.

Huge congrats, Meliss!! She is perfectly beautiful. You and Corbin have the most gorgeous children. My fave picture of her is the first bath. So precious.
Soak in that hospital stay and use that phone to order in your "room service." Come on...how many times do we get food brought to us? Why don't they let us stay for a week? Having a newborn in your home is the best and I remember feeling so much confliction after my 4th. As much as you know you are mentally done and couldn't possibly be pregnant again, it is the most amazing feeling to have a sweet, new baby. Enjoy her and take care of yourself. :)
It's so fun to see how the kids are growing. They are so cute and we miss them. Wish I was there to take those kiddos for you and bring in some meals. Dang it! Take care, Meliss and congrats! xoxo

She is beautiful and I loved your post the day before the delivery too. I couldn't be happier for you. It makes the six weeks I have left seem awfully long. She is so sweet. Congrats!

I am a little late checking blogs and I'm just so excited to see your beautiful baby girl arrived. I love her name and she reminds me so much of how ceci looked at the start! I hope you are feeling well. My thoughts are with your sweet family!! So happy for you Melba! And just for the record I don't think you looked big like you said for 9 months along! You've done that 4 times!! You look amazing!
