A New Normal …

Life changes all the time and sometimes it takes a little while to get used to the new normal.  It seems like this is my new normal:

Can you believe that little baby made that mountain of laundry?

At least she’s happy!  It might be a better reflection of my new normal if she were covered in spit up and/or crying.  And it may or may not include me covered in her spit up and crying – lol!

She’s actually a pretty good baby – especially when she’s sleeping!

In all seriousness – I think we lucked out in the baby department!  She is a good little girl!  Of course she has her bad days and is by no means a perfectly behaved baby, but she is still cute when she cries! 

What is your normal looking like these days?

What I Wore Wednesday

I thought it would be fun to do a “What I Wore Wednesday” but then I got home from running errands and Avery was crying so I never got around to taking an outfit picture, so instead here is Avery’s outfit for this evening (she is much cuter anyway):

One of a kind onesie by Carter’s and Skirt also by Carter’s

She is very happy to show off her adorable outfit!

A month in pictures

Little Miss Avery is (over) a month old!  Time is sure flying by!  Here is her first month in pictures:

The day she was born.

Sleeping beauty …

Adorable little face!

Chance not sure what to do with her.

She cried, so he licked her. 

Laying around

Ready for a walk.

One month old!

Just hanging out … I don’t usually put clothes on her, she just hangs out in a diaper. 

I feel like I’ve been taking tons of pictures, but I think I need to take more!!  She is growing up so fast!

Hello world!!

My due date was last week and guess who made their appearance two weeks ago?  Our baby girl Avery!

I’ve heard that most people go after their due date with their first, so I was expecting the baby to wait until Spring Break to come.  But, as I told my class – babies come when they want to come!  She was full term and healthy and that’s all we could ask for! 

She is just perfect!

The last two weeks we have been busy figuring out what to do with a newborn. 

Any tips?
