"Here we come Anna and Kate!!"

As most of you know, my two precious little angelic nieces were born the day after Thanksgiving!  They have been in the hospital ever since but are doing awesome and making huge strides in their growth and development!  Mare and Phil are doing an incredible job at being strong as the wait for Kate and Anna to come home.  We are all hoping that they can come home before Christmas!

Mel and I drove back to Georgia from Chicago 6 days after they were born.  As soon as we arrived, we ate dinner and rushed to the hospital to meet the Twinkies!  Lets just say upon walking into the NICU my heart melted in awe of my teeney tiny and beautiful little nieces!

Scrub up!

We were there as often as we could be to see those little angels.  We had some great girl time!

On Saturday Mimi got to hold Kate!  Yay!

The first picture that they girls got together!

The first time Mare got to hold them both at the same time!

We are hoping that the girls aren't in the NICU for Christmas, but we still had to decorate their rooms a little!

Anna Elise and Kate Linley, I am BLESSED to be your auntie!   You are gifts from our gracious God and I can't wait to see you again and get to hold you for hours and hours outside of those incubators, tubes, and monitors!  I love you and am filled with JOY knowing that you are growing stronger each and every day…HURRY up and come HOME!
