I'm Back!

I know...I know. Anyone who takes a year off between posts is bound to be voted off the blog world.  But thanks to my good friend Cecily, I'm back in business.  Do I know what I'm doing? NO. Do I promise to be a more faithful blogger? YES.

Alot has happened in a year, but I'll just show you the most important one:)

Going Home!

 

 1 week old!

 

 2 weeks

Naptime!
 

 This is me now...1 month old!

 We couldn't be happier!  Having a baby truly changes your life for the better!  She has brought such a special spirit into our home and our lives.  We are thankful she is finally here and healthy!  She has been such a good baby (lucky ME) and Travis is the best dad! He is always helping me, I don't know what I'd do without him.  I didn't even change one diaper until the day after we brought her home! She looked just like him when she was born, and I think she still does.  Others say she is starting to resemble me more, I still just see her daddy:) In such short of time, she has taught me so much. 

Here are a few things about her:

1. She HATES to be on her stomach             

2. She is happiest after she eats and can lay  FLAT                          

3. She LOVES to be held, as long as you do it how SHE wants!       

4. She squeaks super loud when she eats, people wonder if she can't breathe or something........

5. She has long toes, feet, and fingers...just like her dad.  

6. She likes to be home, and I am positive she knows when she is. 

7. She only cries when she's hungry and I'm taking to long to get to her :)

8. She will follow me with her eyes, and is starting to smile! Especially at her cousin Samantha! 

9. Swing = Off Limits. I pray that she'll eventually like it.

10. Her big blue eyes are everyone's favorite.

Needless to say, she is the highlight of our everyday!  As for what else we are up to, I will save that post for later, but not a year later!! :-)  And Cec...Thanks for helping me!!
