Week 1 Update

I can't believe Elizabeth is already a week old.  My friends with children aren't kidding when they say time goes by so fast.  Elizabeth was so busy her first week! 

First, let me show you what I looked like 2 days before I went into labor.  This was taken at my company picnic during our cornhole tournament.  Um...I look huge.  Thanks to all of you that kept telling me I didn't, but yes I did.

This one is a little better, it is from the night before I went into labor when Wes and I had a nice dinner - our last as non-parents.


I can't describe the feelings I had that first day with Elizabeth in my arms.  I felt like I had known her forever already and was so glad to finally meet her and see her beautiful face.



We stayed in the hospital 4 nights and were ready to get home, but did enjoy the time we had those first days with her.  She came out of the womb a Daddy's Girl...




Her first car ride was a success, her first bath, not so much




She also had her first photo shoot (I can't wait to see how the pictures turn out!) and her first kiss from her cousin, Vance



And finally, she wrapped up her busy first week with a trip to the doctor.  She's already past her birth weight and is over 7lbs!  So proud of her.

Looking forward to Week 2!
