1 Month

Our little princess is one month old today.  I cannot believe it!  She is smiling and starting to "talk" more.  She loves to eat and is filling out quite a bit.  We got her a new Zolo wear sling and life could not be grander.  We also moved her out of her newborn napper into the bassinet part of her play yard.  She slept well for her first night laying flat.  Today we had lunch with our great friends Carrie and Channing and then flew through Target for some essentials.  Can you say Lanolin!  Post Target we headed to Mimi and Gampaw's for a much needed feeding.  We then took the dreaded trip to Wally World to return some gifts for a baby boy and I found a new bedspread for the twin in the nursery.  It is super cute and I will share once I get it all arranged.  It has those cute little birds all over it.  This evening when Daddy got home, we went for our first stroller ride.  The weather was wonderful and you definitely enjoy being outside.  The pictures below are from yesterday's photo shoot with Mimi.  Aunt Amy gave us this sweet dress.  I plan to be better at keeping my blog updated, especially for our Aunt Whoppa and extended family.  I am loving being a Mommy to the sweetest baby girl I know!  We love you Bombolina!  Happy one month to you!

 

2 Weeks

The little pumpkin is now 7lb 13 oz.  She is filling out her newborn wrinkles with a little chub.  We are so excited!  I have definitely got my hands full with Sophia, feedings, Harvey, the house, keeping up with the budget.....you know, life in general.  It is overwhelming at times, but Jaime has been such a great help and a great encourager.  I still plan to post the birth story, but I need a little help from the hubs, due to a lack of memory from the meds.  If you would like to see her birth announcement photo shoot go here.  I will post again soon.  

1 week old

This is our precious Sophia.  She entered the world on February 24, 2009 at 8:49p.m.  She weighed 7 lbs. 7oz. and was 19 inches long.  She is a beautiful gift and we are so thankful she is healthy and that she is here.  She had a mild case of jaundice, but her levels are decreasing daily.  No more cause for alarm, says her pediatrician.  I will blog about my labor and her birth, plus add many more pictures very soon.  Thank you for all your prayers and encouragement.  We are so blessed by our great God!!
