Izzie's Great Grandfather... So Precious
I can't begin to tell you how wonderful our first Thanksgiving was with Izzie. Many of you know, that my father had a bit of a scare at the beginning of the week. We weren't sure if he was going to be able to come home from the hospital to be with us at Thanksgiving. After having one stent placed and lots of prayers, he made it just in time for dinner.
We had a few family members come to South Carolina to meet Izzie for the first time. It's amazing getting to watch your grandparents, uncle, and cousins see and hold your daughter. My grandmother had already visited us once, but she was still just as excited as the first time. My grandpa was absolutely in love. I think pretty much everyone was. I probably only held my daughter for a couple of minutes during the days they were here. I could not beg them to hand her over to me. My grandpa held Izzie like a pro and sang songs like "Jesus Loves Me" to her. It melted my heart. My Uncle Billy stole her the next night. She slept on his big teddy bear chest for the longest time. I could go on and on, but I won't bore you all. It's just amazing how many sweet, sweet memories can be made in just a couple days. Here are a few of many precious pictures. Enjoy!
