Madeline Ray

My brother & sister-in-law had a baby girl and it is so fun to see Sam be a daddy.  He just beams and is so excited to hold his precious little gem.
They named her Madeline Ray.  The middle name is in honor of my grandfather Dedrickson who was really close to Sam when we were kids growing up.

Everyone was super excited to hold this new little angel.  Unfortunately, when Madeline was born she swallowed some meconium and had to be in the NICU for a couple of days.

When we first went to see little Madeline, I didn't get to hold her because Lily had fallen asleep on me.  So I made sure that I put it on my TO-DO list of things to get done before trekking out to North Carolina.  Sam & Bridgett were only allowed to hold her for an hour each morning and evening, so I was extremely grateful that they sacrificed some of their precious time to allow me to hold their treasure.
