First Week

I am pleasantly surprised how quickly all three of us have acclimated to our new life with our little one. After all the ups and downs of my pregnancy, I think we are blessed with an easy baby, or at least for now. Evie is a champ eater and sleeper, which makes everyone happy. She is so darn cute and easy to calm. For a female that never babysat until about 3 years ago for my niece, my motherly instincts kicked in right away. Jason is a great father. We are one blissful bunch around here!

Although curious at times, Parker has willingly given up his home to a squawking new addition. He tries to get a peak when she is in her pack n play.



Parker usually sleeps on the main floor, but has been a speed bump in the upstairs hallway and bathrooms this week. He can be found at my feet for most feedings. One night we caught him sleeping in Evie's room.

We wish it wasn't 90 plus already in Maryland. We thought having a Spring baby meant we could get outside. WRONG. We did attempt one walk this weekend. Notice our cars are the only ones in our complex. Yep, another Memorial Day weekend and we are the big losers with no friends inviting us to cookouts. Come back Erin and Brian. We miss you!!



We look forward to cooler temperatures. We went to the mall to walk today. Evie didn't make a peep. She seems to like her car seat, riding in the car, and being pushed in her stroller.

Evie had her first hair washing last night. She loved having her hair washed in the kitchen sink. I told her she has a lifetime of this wonderful experience. I personally think paying $45 for a haircut is worth every penny for the head massage they give you.



It's been a great first week. I have two more days with Jason home. Visitors are welcome. Please come or call! We get lots of sleep at night, so don't worry about interrupting a nap during the day :)
