Just startin out.....

Josh and I wanted a way to compare and see how much our little peanut is growing each month....so we decided to take her picture with a big bear in her room. Here is her first picture at 1 week old. Friday is her 1 month birthday so stay tuned for the 1 month comparison picture!

(The adorable outfit was given to her by Ashley and Austin Tondu! Thanks guys!)

4 weeks and counting

Our baby girl turned 4 weeks yesterday! We can't believe how much she is changing!

Adah at 4 weeks:

• got her first cough and congestion
• started sleeping in her room alone
• very alert and is slowly starting to follow people, light, etc.
• losing the hair on her head
• loves her pacifier
• can now put herself to sleep.....when she wants

Here are a series of pictures to kinda see how she is changing.....the pictures don't show the change as much as seeing her in person!

No time....

I didn't realize that I would have NO time for anything other than my sweet little Adah...not that I am complaining...I love every minute with her. We have taken millions of pictures....but Josh and I just don't have the time right now to post them...sorry you will just have to wait and stop asking....the more you ask isn't going to make us post...haha...Here are a few pictures to hold you over until we have time to sit down and mess with posting pictures! I promise that one day...hopefully in the not so far future I will post more pictures and get to updating a little more regular.

Seems like all we do these days is play tag team....feed...change...rock....love...shower....etc. I can't even remember the last time Josh and I actually ate a meal together...or at the same time at least.

We are beyond tired...but are absoultely loving every minute of having our precious little girl here with us. She is now 3 weeks old and has changed soooo much. She is still not good AT ALL at sleeping at night...but I guess that will come in time.

We had a great visit with my parents the first 2 weeks of Adah's life and didn't realize how much help they were until they were gone! Our next round of visitors come this weekend....Adah will get to meet her Papaw and Grammie (Josh's Dad and LouAnn)!

Until next time...no promises on when that will be!


Adah's first real bath at home....you would think we were killing her!
Josh is teaching her early...."silly daddy you can't use your hands in soccer!"

This is our favorite picture so far.....this is how she falls asleep when I hold her on the boppy! Absolutely adorable.....

One week!

Our little beauty is one week old today!  We never thought that she would have been here before her due date which is today...hard to believe!  We love her so much....she makes us laugh with her many cute/funny faces and her ever so gassy self.  

A few things about Adah:

- sleeps great during the day but not at night

- loves to make many many faces

- loves to sleep on mommy

- loves to look at daddy

- HATES her hands swaddled down

- always has her hands in her face

- hates to have her diaper changed

- loves bath time

- she lost her umbilical cord today

- loves to sleep in her bouncy seat with the calming vibration on

- eats every 2-3 hours....more on the 2 hour side

We are so loving getting to know our little girl and Josh and I could just stare at her for hours!  We are however more tired than we could have ever imagined!  She had her first doctors appointment this past Saturday and is doing good!  Her head is rounding out great and she is still at 7lbs 14oz which is what she left the hospital weighing...the doctor thinks she lost more and is now gaining.  We have one week from today to get her back up to her birth weight...I don' think we will have any problem doing that...she is an eating champion!

Thats all I have time for now....

Enjoy these few pictures:

This is what she looks like right after a feeding.....

Hanging out with mommy in Daddy's favorite outfit.....she does love her daddy!
