giving teddy a pep talk about their new sleeping arrangements

she has to turn off the light - NOT mom or dad..as if!

night night!

last night MaryRyan spent the first night in her big girl bed. we've been talking about it a lot with her so she was pretty excited. we were a bit nervous that she wouldn't be into it but she fell right asleep. around 1am we awoke to a huge bang which was her falling out. she hit the floor pretty hard so i was convinced this would be the end to it. but she didn't even remember the incident this morning. she got out of bed at 6am and brian told her no way - she stays in bed until we come in. she went back and and fell back asleep and she was sitting pretty when we came in to get her. she was so proud of herself!

1 month!

hard to believe it's already been a month. fiona has been doing great. i got on the scale with her yesterday and she is 8 lbs! she is starting to coo and gurgle which is the cutest! MR has been doing great with her. she loves loves to hold her and her face when she does, is truly priceless. i need to get it on video. she is such a proud big sister! she adds an extra 'n' to fiona's name so she calls her 'fee-nona'. hope you like these pictures of MR and fiona b/c you'll be seeing a lot of them!

nana and papa visit

fun filled weekend celebrating nana and papa and my birthday. woo hoo!

2 weeks.

proud big sis!

not so sure about bath time yet

Fiona turned 2 weeks yesterday. We took her for her check up and she is 6 lbs 11 oz and 19.5 in.

Things have been a little crazy the past couple of weeks but fiona is starting to get on a more predictable schedule which has made things a little more manageable. Her fussy time has been 10p - 2a which is a ton of fun for mom! MaryRyan is adjusting pretty well to her new big sister title. she got so excited when i asked her if she wanted to hold fiona for a picture. it was cute. she has definitely been challenging brian and i much more since fiona came home but that's to be expected i guess. as my mom reminded me, motherhood is not for sissies! i've certainly learned that these past 2 weeks.

Thank you to all of those who have sent gifts and notes. We are so grateful to have such wonderful family and friends. xoxo.

eyes open!

she is starting to become more and more alert so i finally was able to snap some shots for you.

one week.

happy one week to sweet fiona.

Thank you for all the well wishes. We feel so blessed.
