7 weeks and 3 days




Our Beautiful little girl is getting so big!! She is coming into her own a little bit. She now makes little noises all the time and tries "talking", as well as smiles constantly. She usually has a little grin on her face and every couple minutes or so, she'll let out a big smile....We Love it. She's our little Angel....

Our trip to Hurricane Ridge



We hop in the car and head on a mini road trip. We drive towards Port Angeles, WA, which is about an hour and forty five minutes from our home. After a while of freeway sight seeing, we arrive. We decide that we were hungry, and we grab a bite to eat at a little place called "The Crab House". After some grub, we head towards the Olympic Mountain Range, which is near Hurricane Ridge. We had heard that it had gorgeous views and a cool place to go to play in the snow. It is 17 miles up the mountains!!! It took us about 35 minutes or so to drive up the road that lead to the top. It was really clear out; blue skies and no clouds and a ton of snow. We had gotten out of the car for about 1 min each to take a picture with Alivia. It was super windy and cold, so we decided it was a better view in the car...lol You can tell how cold it was, I'm sure by our pictures...teehee. It was the kind of cold that if you were outside for longer then 30 seconds it felt like days. It felt like your nose and ears were going to just fall off. It was a fun trip. It's so nice to just take the family out for little trips around town to make fun little memories. We had a fun day :)

4 Weeks and 2 Days old...




Crazy huh? Our little baby girl is already a month old. She's growing up so fast already. You can tell in all of her little movements, sounds, smiles and giggles that she won't be so small for long. She has started using her baby voice, and let me tell you, it is the cutest thing in the world...it makes my heart melt. I'll have her down on her changing table (Which she loves to be on) and she will let out a little giggle then she'll smile because she realizes what she did. It's adorable. She is awake now for most of the day, which means Mommy and Daddy are getting a good nights rest :) She is everything we could of hope for and more. She is our Angel. Our baby girl.

Alivia's first bath :)



Today Jonathan and I gave Alivia her first bath; She loved it. She was a little curious at first...her facial expressions said so....lol But after a minute or two she was waving her little arms around and kicking her feet in the water. Not a tear shed the whole time. Can't wait to put this "First Bath" picture in her baby book for her to look at and talk about with us when she's older. We had a lot of fun today with bath time :)

Growing before our eyes

First of all, Thank You to all of you who left such special comments. We love you all :)

Since we have been home, we have been trying to get baby girl on some type of a routine, not quite working yet, but headed in the right direction. She is a lot more awake now and enjoys looking around and checking things out around her. She has realized that she has two hands now and like to hold them together...so cute! As of Wednesday, Alivia now weighs 9 lbs and 10 oz. However, I'm sure that's not the case today...lol She has grown so much already. She can only fit into a couple of her newborn outfits now :( and has to be put size 1 diapers already :( Our little baby girl is growing up so fast already. She is so precious and is the light in our lives. We honestly love her more then we thought we could ever love someone or something. Seeing her for the first time, was like a whole in our lives had been filled. I'm so happy and proud to be the Mommy and Daddy of Baby Alivia.
