Welcome Violet!

We love to welcome Violet to our family, making us now a family of four!! Violet was pulled into this world on July 22nd weighing....

We were very excited, anxious, nervous.....all wrapped up into one. We arrived at the hospital and excitement took over. We could hardly wait for 2:00 to arrive. Finally, we were taken back to the OR. I had the most amazing anesthesiologist ever. We was so personable and calming. He walked and talked me through every step along the way explaining what the doctor was doing along with what they were doing with the baby and why she was crying so much, things were taking so long, etc. He was also a great photographer! This was when Brian first came over with Violet. I love that you can practically see the smile beaming out from behind his mask.

First photo with mom.....

He even managed to zoom in and capture every moment we would want to remember!

My first time holding her in recovery. This moment was overwhelming. Stella wasn't with us during recovery. I almost didn't believe that Violet was healthy and okay until this moment....

And of course Big Sister was VERY excited to hold her...

She was beside her every chance she got. Below is her "Cheese!" smile....

Sweet kisses....

She is in total love with her little sis....

Stella holding Violet's hand while she was watching TV, so sweet....
