She's here! One week late, but who's counting? She is Mary Catherine Wernet - Catherine for my grandma, Mary for...lots of wonderful women on the Wernet side of the family. John worked out that she's a 6th-generation Mary! Mary Cate arrived Thursday, September 1st, at 8:12 p.m. She was 8 lbs. exactly, 21 inches long.
She's already had an exciting life. In one week, she's met most of her extended family and visited Gull Lake. She took her first bath tonight! And she's had her picture taken about 1,000,000 times...I'll try to limit this post to a few favorites.

Mary Cate is such a lovely, snuggly little bundle. I am treasuring every moment of holding her in these early days. There's a special, weighty sweetness knowing this is our last baby, I guess until we're grandparents! We're so thankful for this gift, particularly that God didn't agree with our decisions about being "done."
