1 Month

Hi Everyone,

Hope you guys had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Evelyn celebrated her 1 month on turkey day and what an amazing month it was!! Here are some recent pictures. She is getting so big and is surprising us everyday with all she can do!

Happy 1 Month:)

Tummy Time!! Finally was able to get a shot of those blue eyes:)

Sitting up (kind of) in her bumbo seat and sporting her cute pink camo outfit!

She loves sitting in her carrier and I love that I can multitask with her in it!
Getting some sunshine:)

Doing her leg exercises with Daddy!

Love to all!

What do we do now?!

What a whirlwind the first week at home was. Thank goodness for Grandparents, they definitely were GRAND ( I know I'm a cheeseball!!). I really can't thank them enough for everything they did for us. I dedicate this blog post to them:)

From the AMAZING homemade meals they prepared for us every day to the continuous love and support they gave to us during that crazy week. Those are the only reasons I think that we made it through that tough time. It wasn't tough like say a busy work week, it was just emotionally and physically draining for all of us. There was the baby who was just getting adjusted to life outside of the hospital and in her new home. There was Daddy who was ancy and trying to juggle supporting me and parenting the baby. And then there was me, an emotional wreck and crazy tired!! Mom and Dad took care of us all though, they did it with a smile on their face and they are even planning on coming back for Thanksgiving!! So glad we didn't scare them off!! haha We made a lot of great new memories that we will cherish always. Below are some pictures of my fondest memories from the week:)

The first time the Grandparents(and Trapper haha) met their Granddaughter!! Just look at their faces, the best moment caught in a picture ever!!

Evelyn's first bath, Mom helped me through it all!! She looks fussy in this picture but she actually really didn't mind bath time at all and is still really liking them!

1st Halloween!! We dressed her in her orange tutu that absolutely swallowed her!! I think this picture shows that with her sitting in the boppy with Granpa:)

We had also dressed her in a ladybug costume that Trapper had bought for her. Unfortunately, she only got to wear it for about 5 mintues because she peed in it!! OOPS!!

Playtime with Granma...I love this picture, my Mom looks so happy with her:)

My FAVORITE thing Evelyn does...her fishy face!! It's the funniest thing, she usually does it right after she wakes up in the morning or from a nap. She just stares off and makes this face!! She will hold it like that for a while too, cracks us all up everytime!!

More updates to come...

Love to All!!

She's Here!!

Evelyn Marie was born on Monday October 25, 2010 at 12:43pm. She weighed 7lbs 80z and was 18.3in long! She is just amazing and we fall more in love with her as each day goes by. We are adjusting pretty well to our new life as parents, it's crazy how your life just takes a complete turn. For the better! I can't see myself doing anything else right now. Same with Matt, he was so ready to be a Daddy and he is fitting into those shoes perfectly:) Looking forward to shifting gears on our blog, going from the parents to be to finally a family of three! What a cute rhyme I just came up with! haha

Enjoy the pictures. We have been taking a lot of them which I am so glad for because like they say, the time just flies by!!

Our first family picture, Dad's eyes say it all:)

Matt lovingly holding our daughter, a moment I have dreamed of.

Car ride home from the hospital, mind you the drive was about 2 minutes long:) I was so excited to sit with her in the back seat. She looks so small now when I look back at this picture!!

So stinking cute, we love her so so much!!!

XOXO
