3 Weeks

Hey babycakes!

You and I are accomplishing something major together - Waaaaay better sleep - like 3-4 hour stretches at night. In fact, I'm not sure I have slept this good since before I was pregnant - because I was waking up through the night, every two hours to pee!

I love these crabby jammies!

Your Dad is settling right in to his new role. He comes home and scoops you up and hardly lets you go 'til he falls asleep. It's pretty cute. We have started giving you one bottle in the evening so he can participate in feeding you and so hopefully you will get used to taking a bottle (Mommy will have to go back to work eventually). He is being very helpful around the house too, which isn't usual, but he is certainly doing so with much more.....shall we say 'ease'.

I am really happy to see how well we have both adjusted to life with you. We are just so happy everyday - love is simply oozing at our house.

• Our dear friend Lindsey H. and your crazy Auntie Angie came by for a visit this week. It was really nice to see some of my favorite ladies and of course let them squeeze and kiss you and gush all over you. The weather was gorgeous this week and we spent some time hanging outside on the deck.

• Your Dad forgot his phone at home Friday so we took it to school for him during his prep hour. There were several people there that were VERY happy to meet you - including your Uncle Mark Rich - who loves you oodles. We need to go over to his house soon and spend some more time with him and Carolyn.

• On Friday night you and I went over to the Christensen compound to watch the BSU game. A visit with them is always entertaining.  

• Saturday was Jamie Tarell's (Tyree) baby shower. I took you along because you're awesome - and because I wanted to show you off of course. Everybody was gushing all over you there as well. It was at Josh and Sam's house and since they have new baby Jackson, we had a pretty nursery to change and feed you.

The rest of the weekend was really nice and lazy: Micah came over and made delicious burgers Saturday night, your Dad went on a quick Sunday am deer hunt (no luck), we filled in your baby book with a whole bunch of fun memories and we talked on the phone with our Michigan family.

Life is so sweet baby ~ Love, Me
