Christmas 2011

 What a whirlwind these last few weeks have been for our family. As you already know in the previous post, Scarlett Grace made her debut on December 8th. It was such a joyous occasion for all of us and we are so happy she is here. Last week one of mommy's dearest friends came over to take newborn pics of Scarlett and even twisted mommy's arm to get a family shot. Above is one of those pics. She is simply amazing and we can't wait to see all the pics. If you are in the Houston area and need pics taken, she is your girl! http://www.Kathrynscamera.com/
The unfortunate part of our Christmas this year is Scarlett becoming very ill with RSV and having to be rushed to the hospital. It was one of the scariest experiences for all of us and we truly feared we might lose her at one point. They had to put her on a ventilator and we were not sure what was going to happen. By the grace of God, she did slowly improve and was able to go home after four days in NICU. My mommy said that it changed her perspective on life forever. We are all so grateful for Scarlett, for she is the best Christmas present our family has ever been given.

Mimi the angel. We don't know what we would do without her and Maw over the last few months. Words cannot express how grateful we are to have such great grandparents.

Scarlett Grace..welcome to our lives and hearts.

The moment we have all been waiting for finally arrived on December 8th of 2011. A day I will never forget for the rest of my life. This was the day that I became a big sister to a 6 lb. 7 ounce baby girl named Scarlett Grace Petersen. I cannot tell you how perfect she was and even had a head full of light brown hair just like me!
This was the last family photo before the arrival of our little angel.
A very proud daddy....indeed.
I cannot tell you how much I love my little sister and have vowed to teach her everything I know. I am excited to watch her grow and love on her as much as I can. Thank you God for her safe delivery for the opportunity to grow old with a best friend. God is good.
