One Random Night

One night we did a random photo shoot in the cute jammies that Aunt Hayley sent. I love these pictures. She made some priceless faces.

So concerned

I love this face, she makes it often

Big yawn

Sleeping Beauty

Due to not blogging for 6 weeks we are behind with the cute sleeping pics. So here they are!

2 days old

Yes it is dark, but it is priceless!

Beautiful

Late night? Early morning? Who knows, it's all pretty much a blur . :)



Look at the hand... Hilarious!


Sleeping soundly... Do you see the drool??

We see this face often. It is close to what her stretchy face looks like. 



This is a rare occurance... Sleeping in the bouncer. I actually think this may be the one and only time and I doubt it lasted long. 

I love these jeans on her. They are currently a bit too large.


Her hands are often making a fist. I love that this picture captures that so well.

I love it when she sleeps on my chest. It is so sweet!

I love this picture. She looks SO precious!

Visitors

We have had many sweet friends and family visit to meet Ava. It has been so fun to show her off.

Jenny Micah and Abigail drove all the way from Waco to meet her. They are such precious friends to us! Wish they lived closer.

Doctor

Getting ready to head out

Little sleepy head. We are so thankful that she sleeps well in the car and carseat.

Ava is not so happy now that we are at the doctor


We really like our pediatrician. She is very sweet and gives us lots of great info when we are there. 

First Bath

Ava did not initially like taking baths. Now that we are no longer taking sponge baths she seems to tolerate them better.

Getting Nakey for our bathtime. She looks excited about the bath. This quickly faded once the water was introduced. :) Look at that adorable dimple. 

The evidence of our sad girl during bathtime.

Cutie Pie!

Granny and Papa

The weekend after Ava was born Granny and Papa came to meet Ava. They enjoyed snuggling with our girl. It was so fun having them in town, we wish that they lived closer so we could see them more often.

Ava spent most of the weekend in this position... In Granny's arms.

Our first night at home Bob, Lauren and Lily came to visit to meet Ava.

That night when we went to bed I felt nervous about having a baby in the home while we slept.  For me this was totally unexpected. I never thought I would feel this way. This feeling quickly went away since I did not get ANY sleep due to an unhappy baby.  I was nervous after this night that she would not sleep during the nighttime hours. Thankfully we have not pulled an all nighter again. Having a baby is precious and I would not trade the late nights with her for good sleep without her.
