Sister Love

 One of the most asked questions is how the big girls are responding to Natalie.  We haven't done it solo so far, since Nana has been here to help give a little extra attention, but at this point, it just seems like she's always been here!

my mom sent me this picture of the girls when they were waiting to come meet Natalie!

 Kate jumped right into being big sister again.  She was super excited to meet Natalie & loved getting to hold her!

I was in pretty severe pain the first day after delivery.  Lots of post partum contractions!  So, the girls' visit was pretty short.  Hannah mostly just wanted to see me & didn't notice Natalie very much.

Later on that evening, Kate & Nana made cupcakes to celebrate Natalie's birthday!

 On Saturday, David made his traditional trip to Pizza King with Cody & my parents brought the girls up to have lunch with me & Natalie.

Hannah was definitely more interested!  She talked lots about the "baby" & gave lots of kisses.

Nana got the girls each a new doll to celebrate Natalie's birth.

My mom has picked a character for each of the grandkids - they collect books, movies, etc.  "Fancy Nancy" is Natalie's character.

I am so, so thankful that our transition has been smooth so far!  I am certainly blessed by little girls who love each other!
