Hands On, Take Two
In true Christina fashion, I entered a photo in the I Heart Faces challenge that is actually not legitimate for me to enter. I got so wrapped up in looking for pictures that had to do with hands, and told a good story, that I forgot that I am supposed to have taken the picture. While I will say that I got through Eliana's birth fairly easily, I am not so tricky that I was able to take a picture of Mike, Eliana, and myself just after she was born.
I went back to my choices and decided (and it was hard, I might do a post on the other pictures as well...they are all sweet) on this one...
Not only could Mike and I not wait to get our hands on Eliana, her big sister couldn't wait either! She wanted to hold her all the time from the moment she saw her, and still loves to spend time with her little sister. I also chose this picture because not only has Michaela loved to hold Eliana, but she has also been so very hands on with her. She is always willing to spend time with Eliana, and loves to play with and care for her. Michaela is a tenderhearted, loving girl, and she adores Eliana. I'm so glad that they will have each other for life.
There are so many lovely pictures people have shared at I Heart Faces...check it out.

Oh rules - they're negotiable, right?
This pic is also very precious though.
Made me say awww :)
This picture makes me want to have another baby so Harper can have a sister!
I loved these posts and pictures for your Ihands entries! I have to tell you that when my own boys were little, I took pictures of their hands and feet....I always thought them so precious. My husband thought I was crazy, but no matter how big my boys get they will always be babies to me with tiny hands and toes!! Thank you for sharing these pictures!!
What a sweet photo. Michaela looks so proud to be a big sister, and little sis so content in her big sister's arms. Lovely!
The photo is still beautiful, whether you took it or not. I entered an I love faces texture challenge a few weeks ago and fogot the "face" part. So much for following the rules! :-)
Gorgeous children!
that is just about as precious as you can get! love the story with it too!
I love this one, I miss little babies in the house. They are both so precious Christina. sigh
