7 Weeks Old

Looks like Daddy caught us taking a catnap! Every morning after I feed Anna, we snuggle in the bed for a while. This is one of the things I'll miss the most when I go back to work in a week! :(

Imelda to the rescue!

Anna and I had our first solo outing yesterday and it was... interesting. We met my friends Heather and her son Luke and Imelda and her son Lucas at Dixie Cafe and it was definitely a sight to see... 3 girls with babies and baby carriers! Talk about making an entrance! Anyway, Anna decided she was hungry as soon as we got to the restaurant, and she let everybody know it! Unfortunately I did not bring a bottle and I wasn't prepared to breastfeed her in public. Luckily Imelda came prepared. She let Anna have one of Lucas' bottles of formula. It was Anna's first time for a formula bottle and the first time for me to give her a bottle. I thought she might be a little confused, but she wasn't. She sucked it down like a pro!

Here we are with Imelda (our lifesaver) and Lucas. Anna is one week older than Lucas.

Here we are with Heather. She actually has two little boys so I ask her a lot of questions!

This is why we call her Pooter Face!

You'll need speakers.

Every kid needs embarrassing videos, right? And yes, this will be a video we show to her first date.. you know, when she's 30!!!

Anna's First Valentine's Day

Anna greeted her Daddy at the door wearing her "I Love Daddy" shirt. She also got him a card and a picture frame that says "My Heart Belongs To Daddy"

Anna with her Valentine!
Anna and Mom got some presents too. I got the flowers and Anna got the teddy bear.
HAPPY FIRST VALENTINE'S DAY ANNA!!!

Here's our other Baby.........

I guess Houston thinks he's a baby too!

Our progress this week... SMILING!!! And it melts my heart every time.

Anna's First Bottle

Kevin gave Anna her first bottle this week and they both loved it! He enjoyed being able to feed her, she enjoyed it becuase she'll take the milk from anything and anyone, and frankly, I enjoyed the break!

Many of you already know this but my sister, Stacie, does custom canvas paintings and she just did these for Anna's room. They turned out so cute. If you or anyone you know is wanting artwork for their kids room (or for anything else), check out my sisters website... mypaintedcanvas.com . It's currently under construction but if you click on the artwork it will take you directly to her eBay store. She can custom design anything you want and she's super talented (and I'm not just saying that because she's my sister!)

Look Who's One Month Old!!!

Anna is one month old today and I can't believe it. What a wonderful month it's been. She does something new everyday and I love watching her grow and figure out the world around her. Kevin and I feel very lucky to have her in our lives and we look forward to what lies ahead... hopefully more sleep!

A Visit from Poppy, Grammy & Aunt Rachel

Anna's grandparents from Fort Smith (now officially known as Poppy and Grammy) and my sister Rachel and her husband Greg came to visit us this Saturday. Anna loved being held all day.
