Aislee's Blessing Day

Aislee was blessed on November 2nd, 2008. Mark gave the blessing, and Great-Grandpa Gonda, Great-Grandpa Nicholls, Cousin Johnny, Great-Uncle Mark, Grandpa Nordstrom, and the Bishop were in the circle.

Here, Aislee's proud parents hold their beautiful angel of a daughter.

Grandma Nordstron made this beautiful dress for Aislee.

Grandma Gonda made the pretty recieving blanket Aislee is laying on here.

Aislee and Family

Halloween Aislee...oooo!!

This picture was an accident, Niccole's mom doesn't know what she's doing with our camera, but it ended up looking kind of cool, and scary.

Aislee's a doll, and looks just like one in this picture. The blanket wrapped around her is a blanket that her grandma Gonda made for her.

Here is Aislee in a pumpkin bunting outfit.

Aislee's First Day!!!

This is Aislee Manara Gonda. She was born at 11:08pm on September 12, 2008 in Renown Medical Center, Reno, NV. She was 5 lbs 11 ozs. I'm sorry that it has taken so long to post, but our hands have been a little full.

This is Niccole's first time holding Aislee in her arms. Aislee cried or made noise the entire first two hours of her life. We were well aware that although she was born 3 weeks early, her lungs were well developed.

Another picture with Niccole holding her, I decided to use the flash for this one even though Aislee's eyes were very light sensitive.

Aislee hated the thermometer. Every time they had to take her temperature, she was very unhappy.

Here is Grandma Gonda holding Aislee the morning after her birth, and because Aislee was so small, she put her hand over to show exactly how small.

Mark's part in all of this. August 29

Niccole has been worried, because if Aislee were to come we couldn't have taken her home becuase we didn't have a baby carseat/carrier yet. This is Mark putting together the carrier so that it looks cute enough.
This is the carrier on the stroller.
Once that was all done, then it was on to building the swing.
Aislee's cute little swing.

Niccole's Home!!! August 28

Niccole was released on the 28th, and we got home at 11pm. She is ordered to be on bed rest for the rest of her pregnancy. She still feels great, and as of the 29th, her vitals have dramatically improved. The doctor said he had never seen someone improve so much in so little time. The Lord has helped her tremendously through her blessing and all of your prayers. Thanks!
Niccole was worried because we didn't have enough newborn clothes for Aislee. So we threw her a tiny shower of the essentials. This is showing how the singlet matches sizewise to her belly. As of the morning of the 29th, Aislee is about 5 lbs 12 oz according to the ultrasound measurements. That means even if Aislee comes now, she'll not be Preemie size. That has made us feel better about everything.
