We lost Grandma Nola Garrity this past Saturday. She was an amazing women and I am honored to have known her for the short time that I did. We will miss her so much. Grandma was so excited when she found out we were expecting. She told me she hoped we were having twins, or even even triplets (in hopes that we would give her one to keep). She loved babies, and it breaks my heart that we weren't able to see her with Natalie before she passed. (in the photo above, we went to see grandma after we found out we were having our baby girl... she was so excited)
Monday we went to visit Grandpa Eugene Garrity. Grandpa is 92 and so sharp! He was emotional holding Natalie and told us Grandma was right there looking over his shoulder at our little baby. What a beautiful moment. Our daughter is truly blessed to have such a great family. One thing I really admire about Grandpa is his amazing scrap books. He has kept a scrapbook for every family event dating back to even before Daniel's dad was born! The Garrity family history is amazing. Grandpa was even on the cover of Forbes magazine! I look forward to our visits and hearing all the fun Garrity stories. 
Thanks for the tips Holls! I have heard of the book I will definitely have to get it! And those miracle blankets sound great! She loves to be snuggled and rocked so that just might do the trick :) We are seriously dying to meet Natalie! She is so stinkin cute! I love that her and Harlo are so close in age, can't wait for them to become friends! We love you guys, and miss you more! Thanks again for your suggestions I totally appreciate it love ya!
