to introduce you to our newest daughter Brooklyn Nicole. Brooklyn was born on October 4, 09 in Philadelphia. Five days after she was born, we all three traveled back to Philly to meet her. It was love at first sight! She weighed 7lbs 2 oz's and 19 inches long. She was born with brown hair and brown eyes. We were told before we flew out to meet her, that the paperwork was going to take a few weeks to complete. There was no way possible for us to stay for weeks, but we went for a few days. We had such a wonderful time meeting and bonding with Baby B. It was very hard to fly home without our newest daughter, but it was what we had to do. The next few weeks were difficult, but we stayed focused in getting our home ready and preparing Maya for when we got the call to come and get her.
Here are pictures of our first visit with Brooklyn in the hospital...
Mommy holding Baby B for the first time.
Daddy in seventh heaven! This was his first time holding Brooklyn.
I was able to give Brooklyn a bath. (Mommy couldn't stop crying). As Maya said, "mommy has happy tears!"
Mommy and Brooklyn had "quiet bonding" time. This was one of our favorite pictures.
Daddy enjoyed feeding baby B.
Brooklyn couldn't take her eyes off of daddy.
The next batch of pictures will be when I went to pick up Brooklyn. Stay tuned.....
