It's a girl...Keira Jane!!

Keira Jane Buchanan
Born October 23, 2012 @ 2:33am (Scotland time!)
7 lbs, 8 oz
Sweet and perfect!!
She came quick...first contraction at 12:30am - born two hours later! Thanks to Trav's Bond-like driving skills, we made it to the hospital in time!
Just a few hours old - and yes, behind us is the bed where she was born. Trust me, I walked in and thought, "That's it??" but it did the job!
Proud dad of another beautiful girl!
Snoozing away - she seems to love to sleep almost as much as her sis.
First meeting for Justus, Piper and Keira - Justus was SO excited to meet and hold his little sister ("I knew it was going to be a girl!"). I think Piper was still trying to take it all in :)
 Happy big brother!
Getting ready to head home - that same afternoon!! They don't mess around in the NHS... they actually tried to send us home when she was 2.5 hours old and told us we could come back later that day for the pediatrician to check her out! Ha!! I declined. So we left that afternoon instead :)
 Sweet welcome signs from some of our friends.
 Sissies hanging out at home.
 "I want to feed her too!" Ha ha ha.
First day home with everyone. She has already had lots of visitors. And our sweet friends have been spoiling us with meals, flowers, gifts, etc. We feel so loved!
 Piper finally asked to hold her today and she seemed to like it :)
And Justus wanted another family shot.
Cozied up in her towel after her first bath (which she hated!).
Bedtime cuddles with Pipes...
...and Justus.
We love having Keira with us!! What a sweet blessing. Can't wait for you all to meet her! For lots more pics, click here.

Oh my...I mean what else is there to say!?! I love how Justus wants to feed her and she looks like one of Piper's dolls when she is laying in the crib with her! SHE IS SO STINKIN CUTE JESS...but would I have expected anything less...no! Can't wait to meet her!
