on the day she was born

December 8th

 sitting on a yoga ball, trying to deal with contractions,
she's here!, wrinkly feet from being overcooked, mama and baby,
swaddled and sleeping, first bath, Ellie and the puppy papa bought her

December 8th-9th

proud papa, mama and baby, my mom and Ellie,
we couldn't stop looking at her, balloons and flowers, mama and papa,
baby cuddles, going home outfit, on the ride home

It's insane how many pictures we have since December 8th. I need to go through and get rid of multiple of the same ones and take the ones off our phones. I don't want to delete or lose any of them! 

OK she is starting to wake up and needs to eat! Have a great week!

sleeping baby

I barely open my computer anymore. Good thing I got an iphone. I can check other blogs (sometime), instagram, and other little things to pass the time. Also taking pictures with my phone has been so much easier than taking the camera out. So pretty much I always have baby in one hand and my phone in the other.

She was sleeping pretty good only waking up 2, 5 and 8. Then the last two nights she wants to party all night. But she is the cutest when she is awake so it is easy to wake up and talk and sing to her at 3am.

We ran out of newborn diapers and the size 1s seemed too big still so I tried out her cloth diapers. They fit and she wore one for about a hour before exploding. They made Dave a little nervous because her tiny little legs had some space and he thought she was going to pee on him. 

Tomorrow morning we go pick my sister up from the airport so she can meet Elinor. Also she is babysitting for us that night so we can go to this

I'm so sad about leaving her for a night but I know my sister will cuddle her all night and Ellie will probably think it's me anyway...we kind of look alike.  It's going to be such an exciting day/night for the both of us!
