Kaylee meets her family

Jackson and Abbie were so excited for "baby sister" and had been talking about her for months. When Abbie was born, Jackson had just turned two and while he kind of understood that a new baby was coming, he was still pretty young to understand. This time around Jackson and Abbie both were a little older and completely understood what was happening. When they woke up on August 17 they saw Emily Morris in our house and luckily were familiar enough with her to not completely freak out haha. We were able to facetime with them from the hospital to get a quick glimpse of their baby sister.
Cutest Sisters meet!
Emily took them to church that morning and then Tyler went back to get them afterwards. He then went to pick up my mom from the airport. Once again, she had to switch her flight and got there later that day :) They came to the hospital and were really excited to see her and hold her. They came to the hospital again the next day when the nurses brought her a little birthday cake.










Abbie was so protective already and just kept reaching her hands out to hold her. Jackson was so sweet with her and right away they had a special bond.

I stayed with Kaylee alone both nights and she did so well, she hardly cried and had no issues or concerns her whole stay. I had been told there was no well-baby nursery, so she'd be in the room with me the whole time. This wasn't true however, so they took her at nights and I was able to sleep really well. They just brought her into eat and she did great at it!

One of Tyler's all time favorite pictures - those little fingers grabbing his.

The view from our hospital room, downtown Hartford, it was a beautiful and green time of year!


Ready to head home!

They were home with Grammy when Tyler and I brought Kaylee home from the hospital. Welcomed with balloons and they immediately brought the toys to her they'd been wanting her to see :) Abbie brought her a Cinderella toy and Jackson brought the activity mat.


They were so happy to have her home!

 Kaylee got out to a great start at life, a quick and easy delivery, a great and healthy hospital stay and an excited family to welcome her home :)
