The day after Eloise was born, my mom took Charlotte & Henry to the hospital…I was worried about how Henry would react, but I knew this was the moment Charlotte had been waiting for her entire life!!!! :)
I had gotten the kids a Big Brother/Big Sister bag, with gifts from Eloise (haha)…Charlotte got a big sis necklace, a doll, some books, and a dress that said "Big Sister". Henry got a big truck, books, and a shirt that said "Big Brother". I NEVER…in a million years…thought that Henry's shirt would ever touch his body. But go figure, Henry wore his proudly to the hospital. And meanwhile, Charlotte wouldn't wear hers…she told my mom she needed something "much more fancy" for the occasion. Too funny.
Just a little bit excited!
Meanwhile, Henry was checking out the mini-fridge...
(note the big brother shirt!)
Mamie holding Eloise for the first time
Strangely enough, she looks like a fat little baby in pictures, when in reality, she is the smallest little peanut!!!
I got lots of food the kids would like for breakfast, including juice, and Jon got them muffins…we were pulling out the big guns just in case Henry wasn't a happy camper :)
And this is pretty much what he did the entire time…he ate and played around on my bed. He did look at Eloise for a split second and said, "our baby is cute" with a big smile on his face, but that was about the extent of his interest.
Now, Charlotte, on the other hand, couldn't get enough haha. Here is a compilation pic I made of the sisters meeting for the first time :)
So serious!
Little burrito…daddy was working on his swaddling skills. Surprisingly, we were both a little rusty :)
And this is the most amazing thing to me…here are the three kids as newborns. Eloise on the left, Henry top right, and Charlotte bottom right…I can't believe how much they look alike!!! AMAZING :)
Doing skin to skin with mommy…again, she looks like a chubby little baby :)
Such a wonderful day!!!! Love seeing all of my loves together :)
