Hospital Stay and all your visitors!

We stayed in the hospital for 3 days, 2 nights. We went in Monday morning and left at around 3:00 pm on Wednesday. This is a picture your daddy took of you at about 38 weeks.

You had MANY, MANY, MANY visitors at the hospital and your first few days home! Everyone couldn't wait to meet you. I tried to take photos of everyone for you - but I know I forgot some! If you were fussy I typically forgot to take a photo! :)

Your Mimi was in the room when you were born! She videotaped the whole delivery so that I could watch it. I don't think you'll get to watch most of it though! ;)

Amy was there too! She took all the great photos of you being born and the visitors immediately after! :)

Aunt Melisa came at about 1:00 and was in the waiting room with your Grandma when you were born! So she got to come see you immediately after you were born!

Your Grandma had a cold, so she wore a mask to help protect you from getting sick!

Your Papa spent all day out in the lobby making friends while waiting for you to be born!
Later that night your Grandpa, Uncle Grant, Uncle Andrew, and Cousin Naomi also came to visit you in the hospital!

After your immediate entourage came to see you, your daddy and the nurse took you to get your first bath! Your daddy said you screamed the entire time!

Your daddy got to change your first diaper! You were not happy for the first three hours of your life. You cried, and cried, and cried! So your daddy and I were tired from our long day and from your crying. You still hate getting your diaper changed most the time and cry throughout it!

Your first morning!! 1 day old! Mommy got to dress you in your first outfit!

Papa and Mimi came back your first morning to visit you! Then they sadly went back home to Buhler.



Your first outfit! We decided you were still our little Valentine, even though you came a week late!

Your favorite pose!! You love to sleep like this - you really like to have your hands by your face!

You are two days old now! Daddy was rocking you while I took a quick nap before we decided to head home!
Mommy and Eliana about to get out of bed and get ready to head home!

Right before we left the hospital Emma came to see you! Earlier on day one her parents came to see you!

Daddy putting you in your carseat for the first time!

Our family of three ready to head to our home!
When we got home you still had many visitors! Jenna and Joe came to visit you the first night we were home!
Devin and Erin came to see you too!

Uncle Grant and Aunt Melisa came up to see you on your first Saturday!

Uncle Andrew came to see you on your first Sunday!

Kaylan came too!

Mimi stayed for Four days after you were born to help Mommy while daddy went back to work!
Great- Grandpa Jimmy and Marge came when you were 8 days old. He came by in the morning, but the night before you had a rough time, so your daddy and I were very tired. So, that morning Grandpa Jimmy was calling your daddy, but he slept right through it. I got a text but chose to not look at it, because I wanted sleep. Then, your daddy and I heard someone knocking on the door - so your dad went to look out the window - and saw it was your Great-Grandpa! We made them wait almost 2 hours to meet you!!
David came to see you too! He taught you many, many lessons! :)
Aunt Jami and Cousin Rebekkah came to see you when you were 11 days old! They were both very excited to meet you and hold you! :)
Grandma came back again, she's reading you a book that she had when she was a kid.
Grandpa likes to rock you to sleep!
You had so many visitors and still more coming! First Baptist Ottawa also made us lots of meals and brought us dinner for two straight weeks! Daddy and I ate great! :)
Love you beautiful girl,
Mommy
