Annika Peering Out
Taking cover under her awesome Virgin of Guadaloupe blanket at the Family Reunion, 11/29.
Annika's Homecoming
Daddy and Annika right after she came home from the hospital on 11/23. As I'm posting this picture, she's passed out on a pillow on his lap. It has become a pretty common sight during the evenings around here.
One Hour After Delivery
24 hours after checking in to the hospital, I gave birth to Annika. Aaron shot this photo of us in the labor and delivery room a little after 9 pm on Thursday, 11/13. Annika was only about an hour old, and had long since been whisked off to the NICU. We had no idea what that meant when we took this picture. What we did know is that all three of us had survived bringing Annika into the world. And we were proud of what we had accomplished.
Nemschoff Sleepover 1-2-3
My poor husband spent the first night at the hospital with me while I was in labor. He slept on this contraption, the Nemschoff Sleepover 1-2-3. Of course the hospital provides no pillows or blankets, but I was able to finagle another one of each. I think a pine plank might have been more comfortable. Look at how flat that thing is. There was no padding. I sent him home to sleep each night after that. I missed him, but I love the guy too much to have Nemschoff ed him for more than one night.
Off to Become Parents
The flash was too close, so the exposure is strange. But otherwise I like this picture of Aaron and me. We had no idea what we were in for as we took this picture on our way out the door to go to the hospital the night before Annika was born.
About to Deliver
Really? I was this big. Yikes. Should have busted out the measuring tape. Aaron took this picture of me as we were leaving for the hospital on Wednesday night, 11-12.
