Home! Actually, I have been home since Thursday, but this is the first moment I have had to do a blog. It's definitely a bit crazier bringing home baby two. My biggest concern, of course, was Lucy's reaction, but so far she has been pretty good. She's had a couple of meltdowns (one of which led to a mommy meltdown), but overall, she's been excited to tell us about the baby - "baby!" "eyes" "ears" "mouth" "baby sleeping" "baby eating" (when the baby is eating is usually when the meltdowns occur, but she was fine this morning.)
Here is little Sofie coming home from the hospital. I know things may change dramatically in the coming days, but so far, she is just a little sleepy head. She sleeps ALL the time, occasionally waking up to eat, but I often have to wake her up to do that.

Lucy meets Sofie!

Later that evening, after my parents went home, we had some special family time getting to know our new foursome. It was so sweet and pretty much melted my heart.
Sofia Lee Muilenburg - Welcome to the world baby girl!

Before I sign off, I just want to say "Thank You" to my Mom and Dad. I cannot express how much help you have been and how much easier the transition has been because you are here. I don't know too many people who would fly to Hong Kong two times in 18 months to help their crazy daughter and her husband have two kids. You both are the best and I love you so much.
I'll try to update the blog as much as possible, but life is definitely crazier with two! At least I don't have to go back to work! Yeah! (Although, hopefully, my working hiatus will end upon finding a job in Portland in the fall - keep your fingers crossed!)

Hi T, P, L and S,
What a beautiful family! Lucy seems to be taking it all in very well and Sofs is as cute as can be. It was great talking to you guys on Skype. Love you so, Katy
Hello family of four,
What a very special memory and time for the four of you. I was too very nervous about what Sam would do and how it would make his world change. The amazing thing is that he doesn't remember a time without Amy. Much love to you all!
Welcome Sofia! She is so sweet! Congratulations to all of you!
She is absolutely beautiful!! I think she looks so much like you Trac! Congratulations.
What a gorgeous little girl! You two are certainly doing your share to add beauty to the world.
Did anyone else cry when you watched the video...so precious.
Congrats to you all!
I love you and can't wait to see you all soon!
Lee
I totally teared up and wishing at the same time that our baby boy would hurry up and come out to meet his big sister. So sweet!
Congratulations to your newly expanded family.
Love, Kyle & Amy
Like Lucy, I am also an admirer of Sophie's ears. Thanks so much for posting the sweet video and the photos.
Congrats!

And when I spelled that Sophie, I really meant Sofie!!
