First Visit

On Saturday, PJ and I were able to meet our niece Ellen!  She was laying on the couch when we arrived, and we instantly were in love.  Having this precious, innocent, miracle in our arms was an incredibly humbling experience.  Nothing else mattered--and it seemed that time stopped while we were there-not a care in the world for me.  Lynne and Todd are so good with her, and was great to be able to see.  She is so tiny, so dependent on her parents and I was in owe that all of us enter the world this way.  It made us so excited to meet our little angel baby!  Sunday, PJ and I embarked on the task of consolidating to one closet so the baby has a closet, and it is really nice to have that done!  We have a set of onesies, and a ducky robe and slippers hanging in the closet so far.  We also have 2 handmade blankets made for PJ and his sister as well as the outfit that PJ and Lynne came home from the hospital in, so tiny!  Today was our 25 weeks Dr. appt, and everything is normal!  Baby's heartbeat was 150, and I just love hearing it.  They gave me a copy of all my medical records so that we will have everything we may need while on our trip to California.  We leave a week from yesterday, and I honestly can't wait!

What a perfect little miracle! Not only will Ellen have the best auntie and uncle, but soon a cousin too! I can't wait to see how everything in babyland is shaping up in the Noelke household. Happy Thanksgiving to you and the little baby bump!
