Day 2


This was day two really early in the morning just before our mid-wife, Robin, ended her shift.  Robin is also the mid-wife that delivered Oliver, almost two years and one month before baby Katherine was born.  Robin not only did a great job helping us through the natural-unmediacted deliveries of both of our children, she helped make sure that Katherine's cord blood, that we donated, was handled properly.

Oliver meeting his new baby sister.

Gab (Great Aunt Becky) was the first family member to hold Katherine Elizabeth Griggs.

 Bubbie holding baby Katherine for the first time.
We named our daughter after Bubbie.  Lucky for our daughter that Bubbie has a 'real' name, Katherine.  And Bubbie was named after her Nannie (Grandma) Katherine.  And baby Katherine's middle name, Elizabeth, is Betsy's 'real' name as well as Betsy's Grammie (Grandma).  So this tiny little addition to the Griggs family is already a true historian!

"Tiny Toes" was said many times over.  As well as "Eyes Open".  I think Big Brother Oliver is going to have many wonderful adventures with Little Sister Katherine.
