The first meeting

Proud big Sister in her big sister outfit
Giving Carter kisses
So happy to see baby brother for the first time
Sharing the baby with mommy
Holding Carter


Before Carter was transferred to the NICU, Ella Catherine was allowed to come visit and meet her new baby brother. As expected, she loved him! She wanted to kiss him and hold him. She calls him "my baby". The meeting went very well and I am so glad that she got to see him. She asks if we are going to see Carter when we leave the house for the hospital. She has gotten a little upset at times that she can't go with us (they only allow siblings 4 and older), but she always kisses his picture and asks God to fix him so he can come home. We are all praying for that. I thought I'd post a few pictures of the event.
