Halen, on Monday, May 23rd your baby sister was born! We spent the day together, we walked around the hospital in Castle Rock and had a yummy lunch together and you fell asleep on daddy's lap. Around 2 p.m. Aunt Sharon came to pick you up, you spent a few days with Jack, Kenzie and Uncle Kurt.
The morning of Tuesday, May 24th you entered the hospital room and met your baby sister for the very first time! At first you just saw me, and ran up to my hospital bed and we hugged and kissed. Then you saw that daddy was holding a baby and you squealed with delight. You were so excited, "Baby!" you'd say. And, "hold it." You just wanted to claim Henley and hold her all day. We all gathered on my hospital bed where you held Henley for the first time. You were decked in your bright pink Big Sister scrubs and pig tails. You loved looking at baby Henley. Then you held her again on the couch and you wanted to see her, "toesies" and when Henley started to cry you'd say, "Baby what happened?" You were so concerned about her, it was the sweetest thing. And you got mad at mommy when I needed to nurse Henley, you'd lift up your shirt and say, "My milk." You were just so attentive and sweet.
We brought Henley home on the evening of Wednesday, May 25th, finally our family of four altogether.
You two girls are daddy and my whole world. We are so excited to start this new journey...the four of us.
Love you baby girl.
Love,
Mommy
