I'm an Auntie Again! Yay!

Caitlin had her baby last Thursday, the 13th.

Meet Thomas! aka: baby Hugo. :)


Isn't he so precious!? The correct answer is "Yes! Of course!"

Caitlin texted me a picture a few hours after the c-section and I showed it to Rachel. She immediately grabbed my phone and squeeled, "Baby!" I got her attention and told her that was her baby brother Hugo, er, Thomas. She then squeeled, "MY baby!" It was so precious.

She kept staring at the picture and saying, "my baby, my baby" over and over again. Seriously, it was so cute! She already knew who her brother was and they haven't even met! And when the picture disappeared, she cried and wanted her baby back.

A few hours later, Rachel (and the rest of us) got to meet her little brother.

Rachel holding Thomas for the first time. She was very gentle...till she poked him the eye. Kid took it like a champ. :)

 
Mom's BFF, Shauna, came by to visit and got to meet Rachel and Thomas for the first time. She was so excited to meet more of "her grandkids"! :)

Uncle Steve and Thomas. Presh!

Look at that face! She was so excited!




Going back to Cait's room. Rachel loved all the attention she was getting.


Walking down to the NICU to visit Thomas.
After a bit of a rough start and a few days in the NICU, Caitlin and Thomas went home yesterday and are doing really well! And Rachel couldn't be happier. :)
