More Week 5 Pictures

Week 5

We had such a great week this week! Annie had so many firsts. She took her first big girl bath. She absolutely loves the water! She is holding her head up more now. She also sat in her bumbo chair for the first time. I think it's a little soon but the pictures are great. We will bring it back out in a few weeks... haha. We also went on a few outings when Ray and Jeanne came to visit. We went to lunch and to Target and Annie did so great! She is getting used to the car and is just precious. She continous to grow every day and it's so much fun getting to know her personality. Thanks to everyone for all their comments on our blog... it is so fun keeping you posted on what we are up to.

Week 4

Here are some of our favorite pictures from week 4 :) She is getting to be such a big girl and starting to really interact. She loves to laugh and smile and is so funny. She especially thinks it's funny when we stick our toungues out at each other. It's been great having this nice weather so that we can go on stroller rides. I am loving the fresh air and it's so great to get her outside.

Week 3

Three weeks in and loving being a mom even more! I think I have learned more over the past three weeks then I have over the past 29 years! Here are just a few lessons learned...

1) Always wait at least thirty minutes post meal time to do a diaper change. Otherwise you are guarenteed to change two diapers within about 5 minutes and throw an outfit change in there too if you're lucky.

2) The t-shirt you are wearing makes a great burp cloth.

3) When "they" say sleep when baby sleeps "they" make a great point. I love my dirty house and my naps :)

4) Take the baby bjorn on stroller rides because there is a good chance your baby will get tired and you will have to carry her back while pushing the stroller (fortunately we were only 10 minutes away... hahaha :)

5) NOTHING is more important then paying attention to my precious girl... I do promise to catch up with email and phone calls eventually though... I promise!

Week 2

Well on Saturday Annie turned two weeks. Her second week was wonderful. She's continuing to eat well and gain weight. She's already passed her birth weight which I'm really excited about. We have gotten somewhat of a system down now where I even get to squeeze in a quick shower... yeah! Some of Annie's favorite things now are Bruce Hornsby (we have dance party in the baby bjorn every day), the paci, her light music machine from Ms. Peggy and Aunt Sarah, her swing from Jason and Heather, and taking naps on the couch with Daddy. She is just a doll and I am continuing to cherish every minute with her. It really puts everything in prespective as to what's important. I've accepted my house will never be straight again and I love it!
