Words cannot express the love that you have for your children, from the moment they are laid in your arms. When we were still in the hospital, but finally getting ready for bed, my husband looked at me and said the most amazing thing..."I don't know how we could live without her." The most honest words ever spoken.
Being stuck in a hospital room is not the funnest thing in the world but we loved every second. We had a happy HEALTHY baby!
When we finally loaded up to come home we were so excited to take Viola home to meet the dogs. Chris had gone home earlier in the day to let the dogs smell him and the baby on him. They were so sweet when we came in. Through the whole pregnancy they were very aware that life was going to change, something was going on. We set the carseat on the couch so they could smell her and kiss her feet before we got her out face to face with these giant animals...But when we did they gently sniffed and kissed her. They loved her so much already! She was "their" baby! They continue to love her. Beck wouldn't leave her side. If she was asleep in the swing he was lying next to it, when someone would come over he was right next to them. Phoebe would come and sniff her and check on her all the time but never tried to lick her face, so motherly like. and gentle.
Chris got to be home a lot. It was such a wonderful time in our lives, to grow closer than ever to one another.
Oh and did I mention how much her grandparents love her! She is the first grandbaby on both sides and is already loved so much! Both of her grandmas where at the hospital when she was born...on site ready to smooch that baby! My Dad was in Kansas driving a milk truck, the longest week of his life. haha! He bought the the cutest pink leather biker jacket! Anywho, her grandparents love her!
