We were so blessed to get to hold our precious little girl when she was born. They let us spend about 15 min with her before they took her to the NICU. She's doing great and we will know more this morning regarding her coarc and what the game plan is going to be. She looks exactly like Jr did; in fact Adam pulled up a new born pic of Jr and we couldn't tell the difference! We love her so much and can't wait to spoil her with lots of hugs and kisses! Big brother and Grandma/Grandpa Mc will probably come to visit today. I can't wait to see Jr's reaction when he meets his little sister for the first time!

"...Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."- Malachi 3:10

Today is the day, Miss Addison. You get to transfer from the "little girl" heart ductwork that you used inside the womb to the "big girl" ducts that you'll use for the rest of your life.

No leaks! No blockage! You can do it! Just think of the ticker-tape parade your parents will throw for when you exit the NICU! :-)

We're praying for you. O Sacred Heart of Jesus, having mercy on little Addison Jo!
