+ Baby Hollis +


Just have to share some photos of our new little granddaughter. Even though she's almost a week old, it's still hard to believe she's finally here!

On Sept. 20, 2013, a sweet baby girl joined the family of Becky, Pitt, and Emmett. She's pink and beautiful and tiny (6 lbs. 11 oz.).

First family photo. Big brother is truly excited about this new baby.

Emmett loves his baby sister. His first words when he wakes up in the morning are, "I want to see baby sister."

It was such a miracle to see the new baby just minutes after the birth. To count fingers and toes and rub the fuzzy little head. And to watch the mama snuggle with so much love and joy. And for it to be your daughter and granddaughter makes it even more amazing. 

Grandma Patty made five beautiful crochet-edged flannel baby blankets...with matching burp cloths. We all know how much they'll be used and loved. We were laughing at the way the nurse wrapped the baby - like a little burrito with her legs scrunched up and arms tight to her sides. 

Isn't she beautiful?! And I love her name: Hollis. Hollis Jean Grewe. And something else wonderful...she hardly ever cries!

Becky is doing so well. She exercised throughout her pregnancy, stayed active (super active), had a quick delivery, and is feeling good.
Grandpa Scott always checks every inch of our new grandbabies. Of course, he checks the baby's eyes and also hearing and reflexes. This girl passed every test. We love her so much already.
