Blair 4 months old

Sutterfly Christmas Cards

Hello Bloggers. I cannot believe it is that time of year to start planning hoilday cards. So this will be my second year ordering our hoilday cards from sutterfly. Last years turned out so cute that I will not hesitate to order more for 2010. This year I plan on using the stocking card because it is simple yet has tons of christmas spirit. It will be Blair's first Christmas so we will be taking a family portrait to use on the front of the card. Sutterfly offers over 700 hoilday cards so it will take a while to find that perfect one. I had trouble deciding which one to use because I liked so many and there are so many to choose from. So go ahead and tell your friends and family to try sutterfly holiday cards It is simple and easy and they can do lmost anything. Hurry up though because the holidays are fast approaching. Here is the link for ya! http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/holiday-cards

1 Month Old

Blair is now one month old and starting to finally fit into some of her newborn clothes. She can still wear her premie stuff but it is starting to look tight. She is gaining weight like crazy! She is eating 4 ounces every 2.5 hours.  Man it is exhausting!!!
We went on our first road trip today to Illinois to a friends shower. We made it all day on breast milk alone! I pumped milk in the car while Jonathan drove. It is amazing how life has changed, I never dreamed I would be pumping breast milk on intersstate :) She did so good in the car and at the shower. God has blessed us with this little angel.

4 Weeks Old Today









The past 4 weeks have gone by so fast.  Luckily I have had my mom and dad for 2 weeks, my hubby for a week and now my mother in law.  It is much easier being a mom with extra hands but I am hoping I will have enough experience in the next few days to make it on my own. Here are a few pic to enjoy of our beautiful daughter at 4 weeks. JY is doing good and loving every min in the evening he can spend with Blair. Her favorite thing to do is lay on her dad's shoulder and take a snooze.

Welcome Blair

Jonathan and I are proud to say  that Blair arrived safe and sound on July 20th at 7:44 by c-section. She was born at 37.5 weeks because the doctors were afraid she was not growing properly. She was born weighing 5lb 6 oz and every feature on her is just perfect. These past 4 weeks have been such a huge adjustment for Jonathan and me.  We were not prepared for the lack of sleep we were about to encounter. I am breastfeeding and she is demanding every 2.5 hours so it has been a difficult journey. I have new respect for all breastfeeding mothers now.  I will try and update the blog at least weekly with pictures and changes in our beautiful girl.  I will also provide updates on Jonathan and myself as we prepare for our last 10 months in St Louis and FINALLY be on our way back home (Nashville).
