Having fun with Baby Natalie!

Natalie's cruisin' with Daddy.
Don't call DCFS, the bike didn't move! And Natalie was strapped in securely!


Grandma has purchased a hat collection for Natalie. This is just one of the many fun hats that Natalie will be wearing.

We have been doing absolutely wonderfully. She loves being held in mommy and daddy arms (really any warm body will do). She is gaining weight beautifully. When we brought her home from the hospital she was not fitting into any clothes. Newborn sizes were enormous. However, in her first week she gained 11 ounces! On Tuesday, August 10 she weighed 6lbs 5 oz. She is finally filling out the newborn size cloths. Her next visit is in September. I can't wait to see how much more she has gained at that time.

I can't believe our Natalie is already 19 days old!!!

Welcome to the World, Natalie Marie!

Natalie Marie was born on July 30, 2010.
Weight: 5 lbs 10 oz
Length: 19 inches

Our baby girl is healthy, happy, and a complete joy. Since returning from the hospital, we have obviously been busy feeding, changing diapers, and getting adjusted to life without sleep.

We feel very blessed to have Natalie in our lives and look forward to all the milestones she will accomplish throughout her life.

Here are a few pictures.

Look at all that hair!
