Little Sister, Big Sister

I made these pillowcases dresses a while back..... and was so surprised to to receive baby Sydney's birth announcement with both sisters (Samantha is the big sister) wearing them! I had to share these photos....I rarely get to see gifts on the children I actually made them for.




Our friends Mike and Jen found out during pregnancy that Sydney had a congenital heart defect that would need surgery or several surgeries right after she was born. Sydney was born on June 19th and a few days after being born, Sydney's parents and the cardiologist decided to do a small procedure to add an artery band to control a condition that sometimes causes too much oxygenated blood to the lungs. It is a temporary fix and the band will allow Sydney to be able to grow a little more so that when she is between 4 months and a year old she can have her ventricle defect repaired. Sydney was released from the ICU and was home with her family on July 4th! She is doing so well! She is a healthy little miracle baby ;) Thanks for the cute photos Jen!  XOXO
