Jason was just joking how it's like we've added a new character to the blog like when a struggling sitcom introduces a baby for a ratings boost and I was looking for a comment boost... :)
But our little Autumn is a star indeed. She's got all kinds of fans already. It was no big secret that Jason wasn't too big on the idea of a third child, but he went along with it knowing it'd be like this when the kid got here:
Yeah. He's sold. He's so sold.
And after 11 days of bed rest, this hospital stay is like a vacation for J, even though he's still the only one of us who has ever changed her diaper. He hasn't lost his touch when it comes to swaddling and he's been taking great care of both of us while I work on recovering a bit more. But it's given him plenty of time to become totally smitten with our baby girl.
And he's not the only one...
As I mentioned yesterday, Dalton was happy to check her out:
And then sort of stayed away for a bit too:
But his feelings may have changed when Autumn broke out some big brother gifts:
Of course, Gramoo is a fan...I think she's especially thrilled that I'll have the chance to have a daughter too:
I think Gramoo was also excited to get to buy some cute, summery baby girl stuff for someone. She brought some adorable outfits from Janie & Jack for her first granddaughter.
Aunt Jess couldn't wait to meet our little princess, stopping by as soon as she got off work:
Lauren was among the first to meet Autumn, but held off on holding her for a day (today) when she was feeling a little more prepared :)
Actually, that must've been Dalton's tactic as well...today when the boys visited, Dalton was much more interested in touching and kissing his sister:
He also noticed that her hair had been cleaned...yeah, last night the nurse gave her a shampoo which she loved:
It still wasn't squeaky clean but it'll do for now:
He was excited to hold her today:
Eastie had another turn too:
I think she's absolutely stunning:
(No idea why this one turned sideways on me.)
Even with her milk moustache:
Hope you enjoyed today's dose of the new and improved S family. Till the next "episode"...

So is so SO beautiful. Really. And I adore her hair. Reminds me of Ilana's newborn hair, before she promptly lost it all :( I cant say congratulations enough!
GORGEOUS!!!!! Congratulations to you all xoxo
Ok you have to put a pic up and compare her to D! :)
She is adorable. I am glad everything is going so well!
She is SO BEAUTIFUL. I love, love, love the picture of you holding her. You are one blessed momma. Two handsome young boys and a beautiful young lady. Can't get any better than that.
She is adorable!!! Love the all the dark hair. Hope she keeps it-Kate's slowly fell out. I never cared girl or boy the 2nd time but totally can't imagine not having a girl-so happy for you & the boys!!!
Oh, you are making my heart ache for a baby. The pictures with Jason and his princess are so precious.
I agree...post some pics of the boys when they were born so we can compare. There is a picture of D in this last post that when I saw it I thought he looked just like you - which I don't know I have ever really thought?
Still tickled (pink, hooray!) for you guys. Congrats!
Your whole entire family is just glowing!
And those first ones of J with Autumn just melt my heart.
She is beautiful Kristin!

She is such a pretty baby! I can't get over that hair - did your boys have that much hair? Keep the pictures coming - love 'em!
She is beautiful!!! I can't wait to get there and have my turn holding her. But for us who can't be there now all these pictures are great. Looking forward to the next episode. Love you all.
G-ma
We'll never get tired of the pics, no doubt...keep 'em coming!
The photos of Jason and Autumn (you're right...not even tempted to call her Wabie any longer) are beyond precious. I'm so glad he knew himself well enough to know he'd fall head over heels once she was born.
But where are all the pictures of YOU, mama?! Hand someone else that camera and let us see your beautiful, glowing face!
And is it just me or is that the biggest hospital bed EVER?!?! I don't think I've ever seen anything like it.
She's so cute! And I totally think she looks like Diddles...only girly.
I held a sleeping baby at the hospital last night....oh baby! Man, I forgot how much I loooove babies.
I can't get over her black hair! Seriously, where did she get that from? She is super sweet! Can't wait to meet her!

STUNNING is an understatement. What a perfect little girl!
And you know I just GOTTA comment about Gramoo bringing Autumn her first Janie and Jack outfits.
WTG, Gramoo!!
oh yeah, I was going to ask about the king sized hospital bed as well...What?! Star treatment!!
Is it sweeps week?? LOL. I've been checking back in all day looking for more pictures! Yay!
I'm with Sheree, 'stunning' just doesn't cut it. She's a true beauty! Thrilled you have the chance to experience life with a daughter as well as sons!
Loved readint this update! The boys are SO cute with her-- all 3 boys :) You are right too, she is stunning!! I'm so happy you all have your little girl! Precious! Hope you are recovering well too!
E :)
Just scrolling through the pictures from my classroom. I just love her so much. This is so exciting. Hope you're settling in nicely at home. XOXO
