Together!

Yesterday Paul brought Hattie to see Anna. It was so nice to all be together. Hattie loved holding her. She kept giving her hugs (good thing she didn't have any food or else she would have tried to feed her) and didn't want us to put her back in the crib. Hopefully that is a good sign that she won't beat her up later!

It was our last time to be together for a few weeks - Paul left this afternoon to drive 20 hours back to Lubbock. School starts Monday. Gratefully, a room at the Ronald McDonald House opened up for me, so I am staying just a few blocks from the hospital, making Anna's time in the NICU a little bit more comfortable. Even though I have a room close, I still spend most of my time with her, even when she's sleeping. It's better to be close to her than in a bedroom by myself.

Here are a few more shots of our little one.

Melanie, you look fabulous in these photos. What a darling family photo. Thanks for sharing. (PS - I don't know what I saw on the corner of Anna's mouth on the first picture sent. Nothing there. You probably thought I was crazy. Darling hair on a perfect little head. So cute!) I am praying that Paul arrives safely back in Lubbock. And that you and the baby continue to get well.
