Eva is ONE WEEK old!

Eva was one week old on Wednesday the 17th!





On Thursday Michael took me on a lunch date, and Eva came along with us! We went to Elements restaurant and enjoyed our time together.

Thursday afternoon I got these pictures of Eva...




Madilynn brought her craft upstairs after rest-time to show Eva. It's a unicorn, and Eva loved it! I'm sure the contrasting red & white colors got her attention.



Friday evening Daddy fed her her first bottle


Eva's first sponge bath!

Eva got her first sponge bath at home on Monday (the 15th).

all done!








Sisters...

The first several days we were home from the hospital Madilynn & Elizabeth would ask to hold Eva at least once a day. They love her so much. They keep saying, "she is so cute!" and they love to kiss her on the head. Every night at bedtime they remember to give Eva a kiss and a hug too! So sweet!

Daddy got a picture of the girls - and they are all looking at the camera!!

Mommy's Birthday!

My birthday was Saturday (the 13th), the day after we got home from the hospital. We began the day with Daddy making us some yummy french toast with strawberries! The rest of the day we just hung out around the house, then went out to dinner.

Me and my girls!

Our first family outing...my birthday dinner at Callaway's!

Michael picked out cupcakes for my birthday, so we had a little cupcake tasting for dessert. We cut each cupcake into 6 pieces and passed them around for everyone to try some, it was lots of fun!

We're Going Home!

They pretty much let us decide when we felt like going home. So we decided to head home on Friday around lunch time. It was pretty no fuss at this hospital and it all went very smoothly. Here we are getting Eva in her "going home" dress!

So pretty - she didn't fuss about it as much as the other girls did when they were babies.
All ready to go!

all snug



We met Madilynn & Elizabeth in the waiting room, then we left together.



Everyone fit!

We're home!

We spent the afternoon resting and a couple of friends came by to visit and meet Eva. Then we all took naps.

More pictures...

While I was being taken to my room, Michael went with Eva to the nursery and got to show her off to everyone! Elizabeth is waving...




Our family of 5!
