I love her!

I already cannot imagine how my life was before her! (Only part of this is due to lack of sleep!) I only have a few moments to post. I've heard that I will eventually have more time, but I have yet to see it! We are enjoying each other at home. We like to watch our mobile over the crib, swing and talk to our toy monkey and elephant.
We had visits from Lakyn and Aly this past week. I can't wait to have all the babies together for a photo shoot. We're still waiting on baby Canaan!
Aly was sweet enough to bring us a matching outfit for our photo shoot. Caroline was screaming and Aly took it like a champ. See how she continues to sleep as she covers her ear? TOO CUTE!

Week 2 and Valentine's Day!

We are all having so much fun watching Caroline grow! This week she continues to hold her head up and fold her hands together like she is praying! She even has learned to put her own pacifier in her mouth all by herself! (I tell her how smart she is every day.) We've had so many sweet visitors this week. We are just now having to figure what to do for dinner since each night we've had it provided for us! Here are some pictures that were taken this week. Christina, Julie, Jordan and Adam brought us a yummy dinner on Valentine's Day and even brought a very special dessert for Caroline (Her mommy and daddy especially enjoyed it!) We wore our Valentine's Day outfit given to us by a sweet family at the school where I teach and completed with shoes from Tara and Bailey! (Notice Caroline in her beautiful purple striped blanket that Christina knitted for us! )
My mom, Grammy, and Aunt Becky have been able to visit and give me and Thomas some much needed sleep. We love and appreciate them more than words can say!

Sweet Baby

As I write this I'm perfecting my one-handed typing skills!
I'm really speechless...she is so perfect! We've had a great week. Here is a picture of her first bath (Daddy Thomas is fantastic with her!)
and other just precious pictures. Tara and Bailey loaned the cute pink outfit to us! We were able to take an adorable picture with best friend Aly Claire while in the hospital.

Then and Now

My mom scanned and e-mailed me the picture on the left of me when I was born. Aunt Becky took the picture on the right just minutes after Caroline was born. I see a resemblance!


Thomas and I are so happy (and a little tired!) Thanks for all of your sweet e-mails and blog comments!

I LOVE HER SO MUCH!!!

We are doing fantastic. She was born Friday night, February 2nd, at 9:07 pm. 7 lbs 15 oz. She is perfect...I don't know what else to say right now, so I am just posting pictures for now!
