McKenna Grace

Here she is!! Our precious little McKenna Grace has been eating and sleeping like she wrote the book on the subject! She has a beautiful full head of dark hair, and of course her eyes are blue, at least for the moment.

She's been sucking on her hands a little bit and is a very content little girl so far!

This was Christian's second visit to see his little sister. This time he was much more interested in holding and cuddling with her. He sat right up on the bed with Judy and insisted on holding on to McKenna the whole time. He was very gentle with her and touched her cheek and her hands. He kept commenting about how little her hands were and telling all of us to be quiet because she was sleeping. What a good big brother!!

Pop Pop and Auntie Amy had to do some serious bargaining with Christian in order to get a few minutes with his little sister. He is a very protective big brother already, and wasn't thrilled with the idea of having to share his time with her!

With the exception of big brother, Christian, the children were not allowed to go in and see Judy or McKenna. The hospital policy says that you have to be 12 years old, unless you are a sibling. The kids were diappointed and had to wait, not so patiently, in the waiting room for a nurse to bring McKenna out for a visit.

After a long wait in the waiting room, some very excited children finally got to meet their new cousin through the glass of the receptionist area! All the kids are looking forward to tomorrow when McKenna will come home and they will get to see her "for real"!
