First Meeting

She was squealing she was so excited to know that she was finally getting to meet her brother!

And were we relieved to see that.

She has shown such understanding of him as a concept in that we have been waiting for him to arrive. We had to tell her back in April when she was kind of insisting that he needed to be here, that he was coming when she could get in the pool-it would be hot outside. And we have been to the pool as you have seen, so the time had come!

Onto the photos(!):

You can see she brought her own camera-she found that in a box we had full of random things-and yes, she takes her own photos...with little help :)
I love seeing her smile in this next one...she had no hesitation to "hold" him.
And no hesitation to kiss him.
And kiss him...
And kiss him...by the way, thanks to Mimi for watching Emmy while we have been at the hospital.
Our first family shot...
Then Emalyn wanted to hold Liam with Momma...
Another family shot...and I am sure there will be many more to follow!
Seriously that smile....right?
And finally, our big boy...resting.

I will try to give the details to as to delivery soon...such a contrast from Emalyn's! Thanks to all for your prayers and support!
