Visitors in the Hospital

As soon as news got out that Nathan was here safe and we were recovering in our room, everyone wanted to come see the little guy and welcome him on his birth day. We were lucky to have many visitors that wanted to share their love throughout our stay.
His "Lollie" (Ryan's mom) and Uncle Brad (no photo, unfortunately) came to dote on the little monkey first.Then his grandfather, Ryan's dad, made his way over to see his grandson.Later in the day, the Bridges brought Parker to meet his new best bud - they are almost 8 weeks apart exactly and will have so much fun growing up together!And after driving all day from Atlanta, my family (minus Aunt Alex - we missed her!!) made their way to Orlando to meet baby Nathan.
Hattie and Poppy are excited to have a second grandson to play golf and tennis with.And Kelly and Lincoln became aunt and uncle with the arrival of Nathan, while Carter gained his first cousin. He was a little jealous of the baby but hopefully as they grow up together they will be best friends! We were surprised one night with a knock on our door to see my cousin Tricia and her husband, Greg, in town all the way from Puerto Rico. It was so fun to have them visit, perfectly timed with a business trip for Greg.


We spent lots of time with my family while they were in town and friends that popped in to bring us dinner (thanks Bridges and Lewallyns!!), which made our stay in the hospital go so quickly. It was so comforting to have so many people there to support us and welcome Nathan into the world!
