Matthew Meets His Family

The three older kids stayed with Mimi and Grandpa while we were at the hospital. On Saturday evening, they came up to meet Matthew for the first time. I think Alivia and Will just needed to see Matt and me to make sure we were OK. They had no interest in holding Matthew and everyone just stayed a short time. On Sunday, Alivia and Will had warmed up to the idea and were more comfortable at the hospital.

Will's face when he first walked in and saw me and the baby is priceless
John still looks like such a baby himself with that crazy paci! None of the kids wanted to hold him at this point.

Aunt Emily dropped by on Sunday
Where's Peyton? (He has a germ-phobia and stays away from hospitals)
On Sunday, Alivia and Will returned and Alivia was more than ready to hold her baby brother.

I have been surprised by how Will has embraced the baby - he is really sweet with him. Anytime he cries Will says to me, "I think the baby is hungry, Mommy."
Upon arriving home on Monday, we had a visit from Avery and Paige
