Let me introduce you to Amelie Elizabeth - it's hard to believe she's arrived a whole month earlier than expected isn't it?
She's only 2 days old here.
Out for the count on grandad's lap on day 3.
And weaving her spell over Great Aunt Maureen on day 4. (Yes that is an iPad on Laura's hospital pillow but I promise you I wasn't making her answer email!)
As a pre-term baby there have been a few concerns and Amelie has required careful monitoring from the hospital staff. Without exception everyone in the maternity unit has been absolutely marvellous. We are eternally grateful for their care and expertise. All the tests results have been good and we are hoping that Mom and baby will be allowed home in the next day or two.
Thank you for indulging me. I can't promise there won't be more photos but I'll try to resume normal service as soon as I can.
Talk to you soon - Linda
She's gorgeous. Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteMost newborns let alone preemies aren't that attractive but Amelie is gorgeous. I can understand your NEED to post pictures. Keep them coming...
ReplyDeleteLittle Amelie is just beautiful, congratulations, and even us non grandma's understand. Keep the pics coming!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beauty. She doesn't look like a primie at all. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
ReplyDeleteOh she is adorable! I won't object to you posting more pictures:) I love her name too. Best wishes to you all, glad baby is doing well. (I really miss mine being babies)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. What a beautiful little girl, she's absolutely perfect. I'd love to see more pictures.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Amelie! You are so very beautiful and I know it won't be long until you are drawing beautiful pictures for your Gram's fridge door. I also bet that your Gram has drawn your beautiful profile into her sketchbook already or has plans to do so soon. Your name is the same as one of my favorite movies. Welcome little one and I hope to see you grown up to be as talented in your heart's pursuits as your family members. Wishing you a life full of joy. (On a side note, as I brought in the mail I saw a package from Fingerprint. Oh my gosh! My husband got the not so subtle hint and I know that I will have a wonderful package from you to open on my birthday. I wonder what he ordered? Hints? LOL! Laura, take care and enjoy each and every moment with your dear little one.)
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable little doll. Don't apologize for the pictures. Please keep sharing them!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to all of you!
