Where was Colin during all of this? Colin had a retreat weekend with his cousins. Spent Thursday night celebrating Justin's birthday with his cousins Reagan & Brooke. They made cupcakes and sang happy birthday to him! Colin slept next to Brooke's bed, and Tami said that Brooke put her hand down to hold Colin's hand at bedtime...so they fell asleep holding hands. If that's not precious, I don't know what is!
Then he was off to Grandma's and more cousin time with Sam, Sarah, Reagan & Brooke. Made cookies and got to sleep in Grandma's bed! He didn't ask for us much, so we made the decision to just have him meet Justin once we got home. The hospital had some strict rules because of H1N1, and we just didn't see a need to risk anything.My mom was so excited to hear about the first Colin-Justin meeting. So we planned to videotape it....
Colin loves to hold and hug Justin. So far, he's been a great big brother! Very helpful in getting toys, blankets and other things for Justin.
Special thanks to the family for all of the extra support! When we came home, Grandma even had dinner ready for us. Yes, we know we are spoiled. My mom arrives on Tuesday, and we can't wait to have her spoil us some more!! And I'm writing this post while eating my wedge of brie (thank you, Morgans!)
I hope to update the blog as regularly as I did pre-Justin...but no guarantees. =) Much love to everyone.
