Here is a video clip of my first moments with Eliza. Click here for a recap of the day. It's hard to describe how this moment felt. Nothing can prepare you for it. Before they brought the babies in I was so anxious and excited I could hardly stand myself. It was like being at the top of a roller coaster. You hold your breath, and then all of the sudden there you are. All of my emotions were so built up and then just like that I was looking at my baby. I really didn't cry much at the time, but I can hardly watch this video now. This day was the absolute best, most memorable day of my life. The greatest part of it is that the best is yet to come. I finally get it...the joy is truly in the journey.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I love how Eliza seemed to just calmly take everything in.
Oh Tiffany, she is so sweet, what came to my mind as I watched it was 'what love is'.
Thanks for posting it!
Very Sweet! Thanks for sharing! My turn is coming! LID 10/28/05
What a beautiful and peaceful first moments together. I'll meet my daughter wherever she is but to do so out of the chaos of that large, loud room you see so often would be fantastic.
You made me cry, Tiffany! That's such a beautiful moment. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Oh wow, Tiffany- I cried too. No wonder you have a hard time watching it now. I feel the same way about Miya's gotcha video. What a treat to get to see both yours and Susan gotcha day. Thank you so much for sharing!
So sweet, and a double bonus. We see our friend Anna too.
Tiffany, I am bawling. What a precious moment in your lives. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thea and Chloe
Very nice.
You made me cry! That is awesome. Thanks so much for sharing it.
Tiffany,
I love seeing it again from your cameras view. Sorry all you can hardly hear is me talking. It was wonderful to get to share that experience with you, and so much fun. I wish I could relive it again!
Susan
I love that video! Thank you for posting it. How special that you got to share that moment with the other family also, what a bond that must be for you both.

that is so sweet! it will probably continue to become more precious over time too. how priceless! can't wait to add that to the dvd!
Priceless, just priceless. What a treasure for you and Eliza to have.
Oh Tiffany! So utterly magical! What in this life could possibly be better? I loved seeing Eliza the other day... though in the chaos I didn't get to spend much time with her. She is obviously just THRIVING in your tender care! Love, Erin (& Libby Mei)
Yes, thank you for posting this special video. As a waiting mom, I often wonder how that moment will go when I finally meet "Mia". I pray it goes something like your moment with Eliza. She is just precious!
I'm a big cryer and right now I am a wreck! Such a really touching moment with such love and tranquility.
I had my 4 year old in my lap watching this video. I need to pull hers out and let her see it. Thanks for sharing. Your daughter is beautiful!
Something just happened to my tear ducts watching that! Man, I can't wait!! It just puts everything (the paperwork, the wait, etc.) that I am going through right now into perspective. Thanks so much for sharing that -- I needed it! And Eliza is just soooo sweet!
Thank you for sharing your first moments together. You two are so beautiful! Happy 2 amazing months together, you and your daughter!(Yeah, I'm bawling, too!)
sooooo sweet! I am so happy for you all
Wow. I'm speechless and so grateful you shared this moment with all of us.
