5 Days old and some family photos

Dad set up the tripod today so we got some family pics.
The original of this photo had Eden sulking, she wanted to be the one to hold baby Ayla - thank goodness Dad is a whizz on photoshop, he took her head off one of the other pics and put it on this one, you never would've known :-)
Interacting with Daddy, we can definitely see her happy face coming through.
Trying to get a thumb in the mouth.

And then two fingers in the mouth.
Her head looks so small compared to Daddy's thumb.
Dad messing around with Ciara, she really appreciates the extra attention this week as she tries to figure out all the changes that have taken place with our new baby arriving.

Giving little sister lots of kisses, Ciara desperately wants to hold her.
Mommy with all the children.
Ciara asked me to put on the "butterfly wings" and when they were on, she said, "But mommy why don't I fly?", awww.
Very pleased to have them on nonetheless.
Jude wanted me to take a pic of his funny face.
So Ciara asked me to take a pic of her funny face too.
It was lovely to receive some surprise presents and flowers this week.

A beautiful card made for Ayla by Lydia Wells, 9 years old, this can go on the wall above Ayla's cot.

Hi all the Macneils,
It is good to see the updated photo, wondered when you would do it. Ayla is absolutely gorgeous. Ciara is taking it well being so sweet with her little sister.

Well I am getting so excited now to be seeing you all soon.

PS Mike don't forget to pick me up at the airport on Sunday.
