Love dressing up!





Sneeky Face....


Had her 2 week appointment last week. She is 7 lbs and 7 oz! The doctor was thrilled that she gained her birth weight back, plus 6 oz. We are doing really awesome. She is sleeping for 5 and 6 hours a night! I am loving this time. Its really fun. Trying not to go back to work. We'll see. Making a trip to Oregon for a visit on August 8th! Yahoo!

Pretty Pretty Princess!











Home Sweet Home!

We got to come home from the hospital on Saturday, June 26th. It was a special day for us for two reasons! The baby came home and it would have been my grandma Pearl's birthday! We were so glad to be home and get settled. My mom is amazing and really allowed for me to spend time with the baby while she helped me unpack!
Ashlynne's BMW from Papa Jeano!
And its real... straight from the dealership!
Nursing... such a special time.




My favorite pic of my little princess.



Brest feeding is going awesome! We spent over and hour with the lactation specialist from the hospital. It was extremely helpful to us. She is latching on and eating like a little piggy.
Last night was the third night in a row that she has slept 6 and 7 hours straight! Im counting my lucky stars this lasts.
We are enjoying her like crazy. Motherhood has been nothing short of amazing. Can't believe my life before her!



Green Thumb!

Daddy and me in the Garden!

Getting ready to push!
We went to the hospital Wednesday night, June 23rd at 9pm. After laboring for 24 hours and pushing for 3, she finally made her arrival.... as perfect as could be. I understood for the first time,what it meant to immediately love someone with no boundaries and unconditionally. Her daddy and I couldnt be more proud that she is our baby and honored to be her parents.
We had a waiting room full of people waiting for this little girl. It was so special. My mom made it in that morning and thank goodness for that. I had my mom on my right, Scott on the left and Miss Liz as our support, slash photographer! We spent the hour after she was born with the baby, my mom and Scott's mom. It was awesome! She latched on to eat just an hour after birth!
We had a room full of people the entire next day. The love and support of our parents, family and friends was the second greatest blessing! Thanks to our parents for all they have done for us and the love they have shown our daughter. It brings tears to my eyes.
