Finally, in my arms

Okay, I admit whole-heartedly that it was a long week. It really didn’t hit me until Wednesday or Thursday night. Sue put the phone next to Emelia and I got to hear all the noises she makes and I really started to feel how much I missed the little girl. Today, I came to visit early to beat the big snow storm (12″-24″ of snow) and to just plain get to see our baby sooner.

By 11am she was in my arms.

This feels just right

Thankfully she was sleeping and she wasn’t fussy (she just ate).

Not long after she woke up. We sat for a while talking and looking at each other.

Sue showed me how she can get Emelia to smile whenever she wants. They’ve spent a lot of time together lately. I couldn’t get her to crack a smile today, but I was able to do so last weekend.

I took a couple videos.

    I had the same thought. Then I started taking pictures and video.
