Grandmas and Grandpas

(Hey all, Rebecca again)

This time I have some pictures of Danielle and Peter with their grandparents. It has been so neat to see these folks coming together for Kara and Andrew. Andrew's parents have been in from New Jersey and are with Peter and Danielle. Kara's mom, Cathy, has been staying at the hospital, enabling Andrew to go home at night and sleep in his own bed, knowing that Cathy is there with Kara. Kara's dad has been back and forth between the hospital being with Kara and at the house helping with Peter and Danielle.



It has been so heartwarming to hear the conversations between the grandmas and grandpas as they discuss things like exactly how many ounces to feed Danielle at a time because they are determined to do things in the absolute best way possible. Their love for Kara and Andrew and the children is obvious and apparent and I am so grateful that Kara has such a wonderful family support system.


I know Kara would rather be at home with her children, but since she cannot be, I am confident that she is resting easier knowing how well loved and cared for both Peter and Danielle are in her absence.


UPDATE: Got some pictures of the other grandpas:

No, I definitely think having a new little baby in the house puts Peter's size in perspective.
