Pictures of Baby Susannah

I am so blessed to have such a talented friend! Here are some shots from when S was 3 weeks old. Thank you Tina Farmer!

Fishing

Cam is off this week, and he's been spending some quality time with E. He decided to take E fishing at a local park that rents rowboats out. E had a blast in the boat and didn't want to get out. They didn't catch anything, but I can see many more fishing trips in the future!

Family Outing

I really needed to get out of the house, so we went out to dinner. We went to a Japanese place, and it worked out well because it wasn't crowded. E was growling and lifting his sunglasses to make crazy eyes at the waiter. S was perfect and slept the whole time. Overall, it went pretty well! We even made a stop at Wal-mart on the way home! It did make me realize that soon it will be easier to get a sitter than drag kids out to eat!

Water Boy

Daddy is off of work this whole week, which means E is in heaven! Yesterday, Daddy set up the pool and E had a blast playing. The rest of the week may include fishing and hiking. Hooray for Daddy time!

Coming Home

Baby S was born on Tuesday, and on Thursday they allowed us to go home a day early since I didn't have staples this time. We got home to balloons, signs, and an excited/curious older brother! It felt SO good to be home.

Then, we had an awful, windy storm. Two hours after getting home, the power went out. And stayed out for THIRTY-SIX hours. Welcome home baby! My first night home, I had to stumble in the dark by flashlight to feed, change, and care for the baby. We slept with windows open to keep it cool. The next day we loaded up and went to Maw Maw's house to beat the heat. That night we slept with windows open again, and finally around 5am, the power came back on. Once the power came back, I felt like we finally were able to get settled. It was definitely something I'll never forget.

She's here!

Baby Girl finally made her appearance on Tuesday, June 11th. She was 8 lbs. 4 oz., and 21 inches long. Here's what everyone wants to see - pictures!

A good profile shot:

Apparently E was the life of the waiting room - I love the strangers laughing at him in the background. His new thing is to growl at everyone. Hopefully that won't last long.

A family shot. E was scared of the bed and the cords, so he wouldn't sit on it with me at this point.

Love these!

The hospital no longer takes babies to a nursery unless there's a problem, so I got to see all the fun things that I never got to see with E.

She loved her first bath!

I love this picture of E, Grammy, and baby S!

I swear I almost busted my incision open laughing at this moment - E was waving his hand over S, like he was using a Jedi mind trick to get her to stop crying.

Baby Time!

It's almost time for Baby Girl to get here! My mom got here, and E has been loving his Grammy time.

On Sunday Maw Maw came over and E was thrilled to have "two grammies" in one place!
