Steve and I have created another clone!! Here are pictures of each of the little munchkins. The pictures don't quite do it justice because they are each taken at different stages of the facial unswelling process! They are in age order, starting with Clone Maxwell, then Clone Sophia, and finally...Clone Capri! By the way, her full name is Capri Alexis Payne and she weighed in at 7 lbs. even.
The family of five.
Next time the photographer needs to tell me that the person of the hour (baby) is covered by her mass of hospital blankets!
Maxwell cannot get enough of this little sweetie. He doesn't even want to go to school or soccer practice because he hates leaving her. After school yesterday he wouldn't let her go until I forced him off to soccer. He is such an amazing brother to Sophie, so I knew this would be no different. He really has a sensitive side. I tell him all the time that he is going to be just like his Daddy when he grows up, which by the way is a very very good thing. Just before we left to the hospital on Wednesday morning at 6:30 am (and no sleep for several days) my sweet little guy, who by the way had already woken up because he was so excited for the big day when Capri would arrive, called in to my bathroom as I was brushing my teeth and said, "Mom, you look beautiful...no, you look more than beautiful." If that doesn't make a pregnant woman feel good I don't know what does.
Sophie also can't get enough of Capri, but in an independent 3 year old way...hands everywhere! I know this will wear off soon because Maxwell was the same way when Sophie was born, and because I am not a germphobe, it is actually quite adorable, in an annoying sort of way! I also now have two extra arms for doing the little things, like getting diapers and wipes, throwing diapers away, getting bottles...you name it, Sophie will get it, and she does it on the run!
I had forgotten how little newborns are. She looks like such a little munchkin in this car seat. And I love that her sleeves and pantlegs are each rolled up three times!

Congratulations!!! She looks adorable and yes she does look like a little clone of her brother and sister. I love when families all look alike and you can say "that must be a Payne!" I didn't grow up in a family that looked alike and I don't think I am creating that type of family either but I love it. Anyway, I am glad everything went well and that your little girl has arrived safely in your family.
Oh I am so excited for you!!! So beautiful! I bet the kids are being so helpful!!! Congrats!!!
Congratulations! She is adorable and I love her name!
Ohhh!! Congrats to your adorable little family of five(WOW)! She looks so sweet and yes, just like your other two, but that's okay because they're so cute! Hope you're feeling well, too!!
Congrats!!!! That is so exciting. Now you will have the problem that I had.... the 2 big ones fight over who gets to play with the little one. That's why we decided to have another one, now they can each play with one baby. Good Luck with your new ittle one!
Congratulations!She is beautiful and you look great as always!
Wow, what a surprise! I wasn't expecting to see this post for another week or so! Congrats on another baby girl. Sophie will love having a sister, I'm sure. I love her name, too, so cute and unique.
I started crying when I read Max's comment about you being beautiful. He's such a sweetie. And I'm so emotional. Can't wait to see her and everyone else. Love ya!
congrats! we're so excited for you all and your growing family! How nice to have some extra helping hands!
congratulations! and are you wearing makeup and earrings in the hospital?!?! you are always so on top of things :) someday maybe i'll figure out how to do that!
Aww... there is nothing like a new baby! What a beautiful family and you look fabulous for just having a baby!!! Happy to hear she is here healthy. Hope you're feeling good. She's precious and I love her name!
She is beautiful. I can't get over how much they all look alike. All I can say is, it is a good thing they're so blasted cute! Clone away...the gene combination is working for you. What a beautiful name too! Lexi must be thrilled.
Congrats! She is absolutely beautiful! I think I've completely forgotten how tiny they are, I still call my 20 month old a baby, but alas, I admit that she is not.
Have fun with your little gem!
absolutely beautiful family guys. good to hear all is well.
so cool that max has a mivie coming out - he looks alot like marky mark though:)

BEAUTIFUL!! Congratulations, I was SO excited when I logged in tonight and saw that she was born! LOVE the name too, Actually, it just so happens to also be the name of the Island I want to visit on my dream vacation to Italy, I LOVE it!! I had to do a double take on the family picture, honestly, who looks THAT awesome after giving birth...I know, LYRIC PAYNE! Congrats, so exciting!
She is super cute!! Can't wait to see her in person. Love the pic of the fam at the hospital. Congrats!!! By the way love Capri's car seat! It's the same one Eve has! If you need a break with Sophie send her to my house to play.
Aahh! I wasn't expecting to see this post for like another week even though I would keep checking the blog only to see 'Fart in the Dark' and be disappointed by no baby news. Anyway, congratulations on your 3rd beautiful clone!! Love her name too. Hopefully we can meet her someday soon. Your kids are just so cute. Family of 5-wow that kind of blows me away.
What a beautiful new little girl. Congrats!!! Are you sure you just had a baby? Did you have a Hollywood stunt double?? You look so good in the hospital. No fair!! Hope all the fam is enjoying their new little sis!!
I really love the name Capri. You looked so gorgeous pregnant, by the way. I love Capri's cute little cheeks while she's sitting in the car seat. They are so tiny, I always forget. And you looked beautiful in the hospital, too. You are my idol.

Congrats! I wish I could look half as good you did after delivering a baby! She is beautiful! Brooke told me it was quite the delivery!
Can you email me your address- hillarywhalen@gmail.com
Congrats!!!!! She is darling.
Congrats guys! Capri is such a cute name! She is super cute too! Max told me, "you know what? my little baby wakes up all in the night and sleeps all during the day! Isn't that funny?" Ahhh, yes, funny isn't it! :) At least it doesn't last too long before they get their day/nights switched. So fun!
Congratulations!!! She looks so adorable! I love her name. It is so sweet to see your kids excited about the newest member of the family. Hope you are recovering well and managing to get some sleep.
Congrats! I am so happy for you, and your family. She looks like the other little munchkins. ADORABLE!
Oh Lyric, she's beautiful!!! I'm so happy for you and thankful that everything went well for you. What a cute family you have-the two of you are so perfect for each other and you are great parents of 3 darling children. I love you guys! Aunt Debbie
Oh you guys she is beautiful! Congratulations! Seems like we want to copy the Paynes in everything this year with the pregnancy, mini-van and now the birth of our children on the same day...maybe it is a sign our little Harrison with your little Capri (which what a beautiful name by the way). You make the cutest clones. Can you believe we're both a family of five now, feels different to me already. Congrats to you guys and I hope you are doing well & getting some sleep!!
What a gorgeous family! Congrats! You look amazing!
Congratulations! Sorry we haven't called yet, we were at the beach, but we were thinking of you! I can't wait to hold that super cute baby, soonish!!!! Love, the Las Vegas Smiths
Great pictures and I love all the cute little stories. You have such good little kids.
She is darling! I wish I looked that good after having a baby! Wow! You're truly amazing indeed!
love you,
bonnie
