Pretty in Pink

Well we survived the first week. We have had many family and friends come and visit Allie. I know she loved all the attention. Thanks everyone for the gifts, congrats and well wishes. We really appreciate it. My mom came and stayed with us the first couple of days and I would like to thank her for everything she did. Love you mom, couldn't have done it without you!!

We first saw her beautiful smile last Thursday and she has been smiling ever since. Of course, we have been taking tons of pictures. She saw the pediatrician on Friday and everything looked good. She was down to 6 lbs 1 oz, but after these last couple of days she has to be back to her birth weight (6 lbs 5 ozs). She has been eating very good so that's always reassuring. We are getting her newborn pictures taken tomorrow so hopefully everything goes well.

  1. Newborn pics already? Awesome! Where are you having them done? We decided to skip Mother's Day weekend, and try to make it your way the weekend after? Just let us know if you already have guest coming to see Allie :) She is beautiful!

  2. Lindsey,

    Allie is a doll!

    I loved reading your birth story! It will be a great one to tell your daughter someday.

    I have to take some stuff to the County Clerk's office this week. I am hoping Grandma has lots of pictures!
