We didn't know if we were having a boy or a girl, so all we had were boy hand-me-downs. Rob and the boys decided to pick up a couple of girl outfits on the way to the hospital when Emma was born. In these photos, you can see she is wearing her brother's baby football sleeper. This was rather fitting, as she was born just before Superbowl Sunday. The word FOOTBALL is written across the behind.
I love this one! This is Daddy and Emma, snuggling on the couch. Anytime he holds her, she almost always cuddles up like that right away and falls asleep on his shoulder or chest. I think it's adorable.
Above is big brother Evan holding his new little sister. He is so proud! He's also very curious, always asking how she's doing, if she's awake yet, and being a good little helper bringing me her receiving blankets or picking out what sleeper she will wear next.
The photo below is Rob holding Emma, and she is wearing one of her first girly sleepers that my friend bought for her. She's also wearing the knitted newborn cap that the hospital gave her. Most of the baby caps for newborns are too tight on her head,
as she was born at 10 lbs, 7.5 oz.

ReplyDeletebtw - i was in the hospital from Jan 27th to Feb. 1st - we must have been in the hospital at the same time! what ward were you in? i was in 4A in rm 12. :)
You're so lucky you were allowed to go back to a regular bed! They kept me stuck in the LDR room and there is no cushioning on that bed! My back was so sore I had to sleep on the visitor's couch! My room was to the left of the nursing station.
