On February 15th I was driving to school, when I saw I had a few text messages......so AT THE STOP SIGN I read that Mindy was in labor! I was so excited. I called Chris and we both wanted to be there at the hospital. I thought if I could get a sub then it would be possible! I did!
Chris and I were able to get to the hospital to see Mindy right before she started pushing!
I snapped a picture of them and then off to the waiting room to...WAIT!
I got a few snap shots of the rest of the group awaiting Harry's entrance into the world.
Here is Uncle Greg and Great Aunt Patty (I still am the greatest aunt!)
The excited grandparents, Leroy and Rita
Aunt Kristen and Uncle Scott Since they are also expecting a baby girl in May, it was even more exciting! Then I needed my nephew to know that I (his favorite aunt) was there as well! Two hours later we saw Phil walk by us. He was coming to let us know that my nephew was a perfect little guy and Mindy was doing great! Since I was still wearing the green band from saying hello, I grabbed my balloons and ran to see Mindy, Phil and the cutest little guy you ever saw (except for my babies of course!)
Look at the hair! I only had about 3 minutes in the room, so I snapped as many shots as I could. The power of that green band! Seriously! Only 4 were allowed in and since I am the IN LAW and not expecting a baby, I really needed to give up that thing...that beautiful thing.
But, the next day we brought the girls and Koda back to Nashville to see their new cousein. They were great about not touching him even though I know it KILLED Chloe not to hold him.
But, I did get to hold him and change him and burp him!!!!! It was wonderful. Not wonderful enough to have another of our own, but wonderful to have such love for a baby and still get a full night's rest!
