Welcome to the World Little Anna

Bella's last night as an only child. We all 3 soaked in the memory.

Jason and Pattie at 5 am the morning of Anna's arrival. A special thanks to Grandma De Long who snapped the photo and watched over Isabella that morning.

Our first family photo. Bella was not too excited to see mommy at first. She is adjusting slowly...but we have no doubts she will be a wonderful big sister. I hope that she returns to being a mommy's girl once I completely recover. She has turned into daddy's buddy over the past week.

It's hard to tell who Anna looks like. She does have some features that are the same as Bella...but all her dark hair makes her different too.

Grandmoma..

special thanks to you too for watching Bella the four days we were in the hospital!






We enjoyed having visitors from friends and family. Thank you for coming to see us and baby Anna.




Papa Joe

We were able to go home on Thursday afternoon 06/11/09 We were very excited to get home to Bella and glad for the approval from the pediatrian for Anna to go home. Anna is continuing to improve with spitting up but had a difficult start. She is a little peanut weighing 5lbs-13oz here.


A few minutes after we got home both cats came out to welcome baby Anna.












Grandpa and Grandma De Long came by for a visit Friday night.

The Farr's joined us Saturday afternoon.


Our friends and neighbors
