The new mom added that her husband is a "wonderful dad."
"It's incredibly natural and shocking how easily she fits into our life, even though we have never met her seven months ago," said Barbara. "So it's been a lot of learning, and it's been a huge joy for me."

Sleepy Smile
Barbara also revealed that Cora is a "cute chunky little babe." She added, "On her six-month birthday, two little bottom teeth popped through, which was very cute. But I think my favorite milestones are of her smiling, going in the morning to wake her up, and her giggling ... She is incredibly joyful."
