Kate's First Weeks







This is the baby quilt my mom made for Kate. Beautiful!







I love this expression because that's what I always see when I'm holding her. Her little wrinkly forehead as she looks up is so cute!







She doesn't even know she left the house!




Joel found Kate's bed!



First Girls' Night Out! We went to the Cheesecake Factory with about 20 ladies from church to celebrate a couple birthdays, but my camera was dead for the outing.



Looking up at her momma, so sweet!





Holding her head up!


I didn't realize I had neglected posting new pictures here! Sorry! Kate is growing so fast, I'm trying to enjoy this time with her as it flies by! She is so sweet. She has the best facial expressions and her big blue eyes and long lashes are just captivating! I can't stop looking at her and kissing her soft cheeks! :) We're all adjusting pretty well. Joel had a hard time for a while... his world was rocked pretty hard when she came home (on top of Holiday madness, being sick, and cutting 4 molars.) She does sleep at night, but still gets up to eat every 2 1/2 to 3 hours, so the lack of good sleep is catching up to me. I'm grateful for what I do get though! At Kate's 2 week check up she weighed 8lbs. 9oz. She's my best eater yet! She already had her first little virus that made her have a yucky cough and snotty nose for a week. It's so sad to see such a tiny little thing sick! Now she's starting to hold her head up and she's really been focusing on faces when she's being held! She likes to be held when she sleeps and laid down when she's awake. It's the opposite of what I'd like, but I'm glad she's a pretty content baby! There's so much, I can't think of what all to say, but I am LOVING having her!
