Mom and a healthy, happy Baby Buzzy are home and doing well, she reports.

"I swore I would not be the person who blows up her FB feed with baby pics," she wrote Tuesday on her FB page. "But Brad and I really want to thank everyone who has reached out over the last few weeks. Every gift, every kind thought, every warm message is so appreciated. This was a gift we prayed for and our hearts are overjoyed. With the addition of Busby, our family is complete. Love to you all."
