New Member of the Family!

It has been an exciting few months for me and Mommy and Daddy!  I have a new baby sister- Corynne Lily Schrader or "Baby Corynne" as I call her.  Before she came, Mommy had to stay overnight in the hospital because her blood pressure went way up.  They told her she couldn't work anymore and then a few days later Mommy's water broke at 10 at night and we all got in the car to go to the hospital!

I got to stay at the hospital for a few hours until Daddy got my babysitter Zalene to take care of me.  I didn't like seeing mommy in pain :( so it was better that I went home.

Corynne was born around 7 am the next day.  She was 6 pounds 8 ounces.  She was born a little early at 37 weeks, but was happy and healthy!  We love her!

Here's a picture of me and Daddy at the hospital waiting for baby Corynne to come!

I got to come to the hospital later and see Mommy and Corynne- so exciting!

I helped Mommy so much when she came home!  I wasn't jealous at all!

Corynne was tiny at first but she grew fast!

Papa Fase came with Gramma to visit!

I have to share my Gramma with Corynne now :)

Mommy says "be very gentle" all the time

I made "Fase" as I call him- play with all my toys with me!

Yum- the Easter Bunny came and left me chocolate!

Fase and Gramma came with to the Easter Egg Hunt

Corynne is smaller than my baby doll that I gave her to play with!!!

Gramma helped me color Easter eggs!  It was messy and I died my hands!

I got lots of eggs!

I'm such a good big sister- I can cover her up and give her lots of toys to play with!

I can even help feed her a bottle!

Big smiles!

One of Mommy's patients knit Corynne a hat!

Uncle Eric and Aunt Darcy brought my cousins to visit!  I had to give Uncle Eric a check up and he needed a shot!

We got to splash in the pool!  My cousins are crazy!

Carter is such a big boy that he could hold Corynne!

And Elina tried to share her cookie!

Mommy lets me hold Corynne too cause I'm a big girl!

This is at my school when we had a Trike-A-Thon

Corynne falls asleep for Daddy cuz he is nice and warm :)
