Woah!

My family had managed to keep Emily in the dark about what was happening as we expected things to take much longer and didnt want to upset her but when Michelle received my text message with a picture of Hannah she showed it to Emily and explained, Emily was running round squeeling with joy and over the moon she had a baby sister!

It was 6:45pm before we knew it and i asked mum to nip home and bring my dad and Emily up while they had the chance as they move you to the ward at 8pm and no one is allowed in.
It was just gone 7:35pm when i heard footsteps in the coridor and ran out to meet Em who gave me a massive hug then straight away wanted to see Hannah, so she hopped up on the delivery bed with her Dad and looked over the cot and fell in love right away! I didnt get a look in she was so made up with how cute she was and her eyes were like saucers.


Mum had very kindly brought me and Steve a KFC bucket which me and Daddy quickly dispatched.
Emily was mega upset when she had to leave with Nan, Grandad & Daddy as me and Hannah had to be moved up to the ward. The poor little darling had big teary eyes and did not want to leave us but Hannah needed close monitoring due to her being so tiny.

Luckily the following day at 7:30pm they released us from hospital and we came home to a very excited big sister who was super pleased to see us all.
She has been amazing, she loves Hannah so much, im really glad we took so much time and care to involve her in everything and prepared her well by talking about the baby allot, it deffinatly worked, She is more than happy to let me see to Hannah first and has not displayed any jellousy at all infact quite the opposite.

She loves the fact Hannah is wearing some of her old baby clothes and enjoys helping out with fetching and carrying, she strokes her forehead so gently and helps me put cream on her dry belly.
She is also loving having me and Daddy home every day, its going to be a wonderfull Christmas! Were so proud of our girls even though we are still a little in shock!
