This past weekend, Sarah and Anna and I raced to Wilmington to get our hands on Baby Penelope. She was born on Monday, October 11, 2010 after Johnna was rushed to an emergency c-section for a prolapsed cord! We are so thankful that there were skilled nurses and doctors there who were able to keep everyone healthy! It had about killed us to wait until Friday to drive down, but it probably was for the best. Johnna was feeling better and they all came over to Mimi and Papa's for an entire afternoon and evening to hang out. It was so much fun! And Penelope is absolutely precious! She is the best ol' thing--so content and relaxed anywhere but on the changing table! The funniest part was watching my brother, Jeff, be a dad. He was hysterical! Everything had to be just right for Penelope and poor Johnna was not getting to do a thing--Jeff had to do everything. It about killed him that all of us were holding her and he couldn't! I just never thought he would be this way--too funny!
Anna talked all week about how she was going to share her Bo-bo with Baby Penelope!
The proud cousin and big sister, Nia!
Sweet Nelly!
Proud Papa making sure everything is just right...
The Collins women fussing over the newest member!
Proud grandparents
Doling out some love!
Johnna finally got to hold her after Sarah yelled at Jeffro to give her up!
Wrestling with Uncle Jeffro!
It's going to be so fun to watch Anna and Jack and Nia and Penelope grow up together. Family reunions are getting much more interesting!!!
