Nan (Nicole) and Gianni are the proud parents of baby Lilijana, and after seeing her last night I have to say that I am somewhat speechless. I am just so happy for them and so proud of my friend. She is amazing and calm and loving and I just couldn’t stop watching her with the little person who is all of a sudden part of our world. Gianni is still trying to get past the part where Lilijana’s head came out of Nicole’s vagina, but I think once he grasps that, it will hit him that he is a daddy (he turned white and almost fainted in the delivery room). He is as proud as can be, and when I walked into the room, he was like a tour guide showing me around, asking me to sit down, making sure I was comfortable, asking me if I wanted some of Nicole’s food from her dinner tray…
Sadly, I didn’t get a picture of Nan, Gianni and the baby together because it was like the paparazzi in there! But Nicole snapped a shot of me with Lilijana so we could all see how sometimes sisters’ traits show up in their kids happy I am that the baby is finally here.
Before I left, Nan, Lilijana and I were able to hang out – just the girls. Nan nursed as we sat and talked, and then the two of them cuddled like only a mom and daughter can do…and this photo just says more than I could ever say in a blog post:
She is so beautiful, I am so happy for them!
Nan’s pic w/Lilijana brought tears of happiness to my eyes!
