Reagan Finally Meets Her Little Brother!

We decided not to bring Reagan up to the hospital until the day we were leaving. We just thought it would be harder on her than if we just didn't see her at all. Once she saw us, it would be hard to get her to leave without throwing a huge fit, and we were unsure of how much she would really understand. So, I spent my very first 2 nights ever away from her.

Saturday my parents and sister brought her up to see us and she meet her baby brother for the first time. It was so good to see her, I was more emotional than I thought I would be. She was just so happy to see us and it seemed like she was so much bigger than I remembered!

We got Reagan a bunch of goodies to open at the hospital. We told her it was a gift from her baby brother because he was loved her and was happy she was his big sister.

Our new family of four.

Huge thank you to all our family who came together to help us take care of Reagan while we were in the hospital.

Sister - I can't thank you enough for everything you did. Taking the time off work to spend 4 days with us, driving into town, being by my side during delivery, making me look soap opera good at all times, making cookies, banners and picture collages, helping mom during the day/nights with Reagan, taking and uploading pictures and being nothing but helpful, loving and supportive.

Mom - Thank you for taking time off work to take care of Reagan. I know she loves being with her Nonna and playing together in the toy room. Thanks for rocking her to sleep and being there through the night to make sure she was okay. I could never thank you enough for all that you do for us.

Dad - Thanks for coming up to see us and always being there in the background. I know you are always just a phone call away. Especially when my car decides to die while driving down the road with 2 kids in the back seat!

Honey - Thank you so much for taking care of Reagan. I never have to worry when she is with you and I know she is always having fun. Thanks for sending pictures updating us on how she is and what y'all are doing. We are so lucky to have a special, sweet Honey like you. Someone who is always there to help and offer a hand whenever you can.

Tricia, Dustin and Lance - Thank you also for watching Reagan and letting her play with her favorite cousin. I would have loved to have been there when it was just Uncle Dustin, Uncle Lance and both kids. Especially when they thought they were going to have to change a dirty diaper! Lance, thanks for surprising us and making the drive. That is probably the one thing Darrin will remember the most. We love you guys.
