Meeting Brother

Because of the H1N1 scare, anyone under the age of 16 was not allowed to visit us in the hospital... INCLUDING SIBLINGS!!! So Tessa was not able to come meet her new brother in the hospital and I didn't get to see her for 3 days :( Thank goodness Tessa has such a good Nana, Papa, Auntie, and cousins to entertain her while we were gone. We were also lucky that the hospital was close by so Super Dad could take her to lunch and put her to bed every night. This all helped the weekend go by quickly for her. But we were all excited when we got to come home on Monday to return to life. The hospital room was not very comfortable and was getting really boring with the restrictions on visitors.

So on Monday Tessa got to meet her Baby Brother... and she absolutely LOVES him. She laughs every time he makes a noise and she is constantly waving at him. She is very gentle with him and loves to just stare at him. She even squats down to his level so she can look at him face to face. She is really adjusting well to having another "person" around. We are so proud of her!!!


All ready to go home


Daddy is excited to sleep in his own bed and not the hospital chair!
