Hali'a








My niece is soooo stinking cute! She is such a trooper and we love her so much already! I got to spend a couple of hours at the hospital with her and just cuddle and love on her. Being able to see new babies brought into this world is always an awe-inspiring and tender moment. It truly is one of the greatest blessings Heavenly Father has given us. I was so touched to watch Jon as he interacted with Hali'a. He is so gentle and sweet; I saw new side of my brother that almost brought tears to my eyes. He is such an amazing daddy already. We are grateful for her quick recovery from her heart surgery and so "thankful" that she will be home for her first Thanksgiving!

She is so beautiful. It is exciting that she will be home and spoiled by her Aunt Hilarie so soon!

Oh she is so teeny tiny. She reminds me of Cody when he was a wee one. She is gorgeous and such a fighter!!!!

that is so sweet and special. i know all too well how hard it is to see your new innocent baby on wires, monitors and tubes and not be able to even hold and comfort him/her. i am so glad to hear that all went well w/the surgery. thanks for the update

She is stinkin' cute and the pictures of Jon with her are so touching. After all the updating about her condition in the womb it's so nice to see a cutie pie with a family who loves her and a surgery out of the way! She's a great little blessing!!
