Just Hanging out AND A Visit with the Easter Bunny

Ayla's 1st visit with the Easter Bunny!  I couldn't wait to take her!  It was worth the $20 photo.  :-)

It's great being on maternity leave with Ayla!  I get to hold her all day and usually no one knows if I haven't put on make-up for the day.  But Blair exposed me today with this picture!

This is Blair's favorite way to sleep with Ayla.


3 Weeks Old

I couldn't resist taking a few pictures of Ayla today while she wsas sleeping.  She's such a good baby!  She sleeps about 3-4 hours at night.  Then she wakes up to feed, and then goes back to sleep.  She's already sleeping in her crib (have been since the 1st night home).  We're so proud of her!  I can't believe how big she's gotten so far!



I can't get enough of those chubby little hands!






She just looks so sweet!  Like a little angel.




New Born Pictures

Fancy and I took Ayla to get a few pictures taken today.  It was a free deal if I let the photographer use her as a study piece.  She did a great job and so did Ayla!  She slept through the entire session.  The photographer said that usually babies have to be given a break to calm down.  Since they got done with the session so early, she took a few pictures of Ayla and me together and also a generational photo of Ayla, Fancy, and me.














Already Rolling Over!

At 2 1/2 weeks, she's already managed to roll over all by herself!  I can't believe how big she is!

Happy Birthday

Miss Ayla Blair!  It has been a long journey.  And now you're here!  Your daddy and I cannot wait to cherish every moment of your life here on Earth.  We know that you’ll be a very happy, healthy baby who will grow to live a long, happy, healthy life.  It’s what we’ve prayed for you since before we knew you even existed.  We love you so!



You were so wide awake when you were born
 
Grandpa and Fancy came to visit before the surgery. Notice Fancy's customized shirt for this special occasion!
 
 


Legs so swollen I couldn't lift them myself to put on a sock. Grandpa had to help me!
