The Big Sister

After nine months, Natalie is finally a big sister. Sam was born on February 10, 2009 at 2:21 am. Natalie spent the days we were at the hospital with Tita. The first time she came to see us she was a little freaked out. There we lots of people in the room and I was on the bed. She wouldn't even come near me or Sam. Things got a little better. By the time she left she gave Sam a kiss and a hug.

By the time we came home I think she had gotten used to hearing about Sam. Of course it helped that Sam had a gift waiting for her when she got home. Since then she has become a great big sis. She sits with me when I am feeding him, today she helped me give him a bath and she loves to hug and give him lots of kisses. I am sure it will only get better from here. She has been such a good sport about it all. We love her so much! Jason and I were so glad to be able to come home and so the four of us could be together.

How did he know that she LOVES gum!
