Happiness must be contagious! Look at the smiles on ALL the faces!!! Does Elizabeth never frown?
What a BEAUTIFUL Family!!! We can't wait to meet Elizabeth.
What JOY!! She is a cutie! Can't wait to get my hands on her!
You ALL look so happy. I can't wait to hold that little angel she is tooo cute for words. Mary if you need anything Email me and I'll have things ready for you. Saturday can't come soon enough. Love you so much MOM
I can't agree more with the sentiments of the others who've posted here. You all just look SO HAPPY. I know that all babies have meltdowns, but looking at Elizabeth's smiling face makes it hard to imagine her crying! :-)
Have a safe (and uneventful) flight home!
