No More Newborn

This is Bailee's birth announcement. Thanks to my sister, Jacqueline for the photography and the announcement. She's SO talented. The picture on the far right took us by surprise. We can't believe she captured that shot from a 2 week old. We call it the 'Papparizi; I'm naked, don't take my picture' look. It's our favorite.






My baby no longer has the newborn look or the newborn cry. I miss that but I enjoy the new changes. Her new cry is even sweeter. She has definately turned it down a bit and she sometimes makes little cat sounds. She still snorts when she cries though. I find that amusing!!

My mother in law always used to say that I feed my babies pure cream because they get so fat. I'm starting to believe her after seeing Bailee at 7 weeks. She has really filled out and become quite chubby. At her Dr. appt last week she weighed 9lbs 2oz. She gained over 4 pounds in a month. Quiet an achievment but not surprising considering how often I feed this child!!

I just got this in the mail today! Sooooo cute!

And what do you mean about fat??? :) My kids are all 9lbs at birth - I love it - they are just full of baby chub. Nothing is better than a chunky baby with chunky thighs and cheeks.

She's so cute! Wish I could be there to hold her. Thanks for sending the birth announcement. Jackie does do amazing work!

I adored seeing Bailee at her blessing this last week. She sure is looking sweet.

I can't believe how alert and awake she is in those pictures! I love the basket one too. Maybe you're losing weight so good because she's gaining so good. Perhaps I need Des to eat a little more often! kelli
