Introducing Angelina Frances Marie Hill

Born: 7:20am

Weight: 8 lbs 5 oz

Length: 21 and a quarter inches
Named after my sweet Grammie, Angelina
Francis was my wonderful Papa's middle name
Marie is the birth mom's middle name
And you know where Hill comes from. :)

I got a call from the birth mom today at 8am saying that she just had the baby and we could come and meet her. My friend Girl (Liz) came right over to stay with Kaleb and Bethany (the little girl I am watching) and since Eric was already at work, he left work and met me at the hospital. When we first got there, we were able to visit with birth mom who was in great spirits. She said we could go and see the baby. Once we got to the nursery window, the baby was right in front getting a bath. Of course, I started crying and Eric and I were looking at every little feature she has. :) Angelina is soooo beautiful! We are in love. :) At first, we were just going to be able to see her through the glass, but the birth mom allowed me to have her second wrist band so I could go in to touch her and take her picture. Eric had could not go in the nursery since he didn't have a wrist band, but we will be able to hold her when we go back to the hospital tomorrow. I was able to talk to her and feel her soft baby skin. We can't WAIT to hold her. If all goes well, she can come home with us on Friday. PLEASE send your prayers our way that everything works out. Enjoy the pics of Baby Girl! :)
Video below! :) Enjoy!

I want to dedicate the song playing to Baby Girl...
