Last Sunday my favorite sister in the world gave birth to my first niece!
Meet Miss Marley Ann.
Born September 14th, 5lbs 11oz.
This picture is from our very first meeting. Because I couldn't be there, Megan and Suman FaceTimed with me after she was clean and all checked out.
This girl ended up staying in the hospital for almost a week as they tried to get her bilirubin levels normal. This is my favorite picture of her in the little glowing box.
A rare moment away from the lights. She either has a headache or ESP.
This is the first time she wore clothes! Because of the high bilirubin levels, she spent most of her time with only a diaper in the going box. This was the first time they said she could spend the night out of the box and so Megan and Suman got her dressed up. Sadly, the levels didn't hold steady and she went back in the box the next night.
This sweet girl is home now!
Sadly, I am having to wait until Thanksgiving to go home for a visit. I have been so shocked over how much I like this kid that I don't even know. Its fascinating to think that she has a little bit of me in her. Like, she might randomly get toes like mine, just because some of our genes are the same (I have weird toes in my family and recently met my mom's aunt for the first time. She has the same exact toes as I do, so, it can happen). I can't wait to see Megan and Suman as parents and my mom and dad love on their first grandchild.
I'm excited to love her, be friends with her, and spoil her in ways that only an aunt can.
More pictures to come.
