Eliza's First 2 weeks!

We are soooo in love with our Eliza Claire. She is already growing too fast. I'm not sure if its because she is our third and we are a little more easy going now, or because she is a wonderful baby, or because Ryan is home for 6 weeks, or because I am feeling better than I have with the other 2, or all of the above, but we have really enjoyed every moment with our new baby girl. So far she is still pretty sleepy, but she only fusses when she needs something, and is generally very content. Sadie and Connor are still fascinated with her. She is the first person they want to see in the morning and the last they kiss good night. She has had both good and bad nights when it comes to sleep, but she isn't up crying all night-just up to eat or have a diaper change and usually goes back down. She sleeps pretty well in her bassinet, but Loves to snuggle in bed with Ryan or I. We are so grateful to have her, and for all the wonderful friends and family that have brought us meals, come to visit, sent generous gifts, or called or emailed. We have felt very loved!:)

Eliza already has Daddy wrapped around her finger!

Cute baby! I'm so glad that you put lots of pictures up so we could get a look at her even far away! I had to get a closer look at all the pictures. There is something about a newborn that just brings a little bit of heaven to your home for a short while. I miss that!
