Lucy is a week old!

Can't believe my baby is already a week old! 

Lucy we love you baby girl!

Thank God for family!

I wouldn't have been able to make it this last week without my sweet momma!  She came home with us from the hospital and has been instrumental in taking care of my 2 big kids while I settled in with Lucy. Pop and Allen also came for the weekend and they have all gone home tonight and we were so sad to see them leave!  Thanks Lolli for all your help..we couldn't have done it without you.

Karis leaned over to kiss Lucy and Lucy turned towards her!  How sweet!

It sure has been a fun week!

Visit with friends and Lucy's newborn pics

We have had lots of sweet friends who have come over to keep us company and to provide meals and support. Our friends Jeff and  Lori and their daughter Emma Kate (Brayden calls her "Emma Cake") came over the other day to play and brought us lunch and it was so much fun.  Thanks McKenzies!

And Friday night our good friends, Todd and Tara Fleming came over to take some newborn pictures of our 5 day old princess.  They take all of our family pictures and do an AMAZING job!  Check out their website for a glance at the pics.  The pics will appear on my blog very soon!

Here is Jay and ours and the Fleming's kids Aiden, Cannon and Quinn

Family, Friends, Fun, and Firsts

Adjusting to life with 3 children has been wonderful and not really all that different actually.  I am recovering quickly and almost feeling normal again.  We have had lots of family and friends visit and have been enjoying alot of firsts with our sweet 3rd born.

First prayer time before bed with Lucy 

Lucy sleeps most of the day and spends lots of time in this...wow...what a life!

Mari-Morgan and Paige came to visit and the girls were such helpers taking care of Lucy...

Mrs. Paige is getting baby fever....

Lolli has given all the 3 kids their first bath at home.  This is Lucy's first bath...

Nothin' like a clean baby!

My precious little angel...

Lucy likes Aunt Paige...

The little helpers again

Lucy's first outing, the playground...4 days old.

Lolli baked alphabet cookies with Karis and they were delicious!

Karis helped change a diaper...it was just wet of course.

Daddy and all 3 kids...a lap full!

This season of life is wonderful...I am so thankful for the blessings the Lord has given us!

We're going home!

Today we woke up, spent some time with our girl, and then packed up and got prepared to go home and show Lucy where we live.  

Daddy spending time with "Lucy Loo" (it seems to have become her nick name)

Her name card..kinda fuzzy but I wanted to have record of it regardless

Snoozing away in the outfit "Aunt Paige" gave her

Our hospital room as we prepare to leave

Lucy's "going home" outfit which is actually the same outfit Karis wore home from the hospital.  Their Lolli smocked it for them...isn't it beautiful?

Getting cleaned up before we head out...

There is nothing like a freshly cleaned baby...makes you want to eat 'em up!

Daddy and Lucy as we wait on discharge papers...

Me and my girl...we are going home!

Getting in the car seat...ready to go!

SO excited to show Lucy our home!

We are so glad to have Lucy home!
