Life with a three-week old and a 3.5 year old! :)

As of Thursday, we had a three-week old, and as of yesterday (Friday), we have been home for two weeks. It has flown by. 

Last Wednesday, Mrs. Ginger and Timber came over to play! It was a WONDERFUL day for my big girl (and for me)! Ging and I drank our coffee outside in the shade while the girls played, and they had the best time! :) Ging bought them matching swimsuits and we hooked up the sprinkler head to the water spout. They also played with cups and a bucket of water. That will keep two little girls busy for hours! :) Just look at these sweet faces!!! We had a great few hours with Ging and T!



 ...and Ging got to hold Licy for the first time!
 Timber kept saying "baby Licity!" Precious :)

 And, of course, all little girls need popsicles on a beautiful day outside! :)

 T cracks me up! 
 Mommy with her girls! And, yes, Ave is naked! ;) 
 Licy has started to swing a little, and, of course, she liked it. 
 My sweet girls playing together.

 Ave is so very sweet with her. I love watching them interact. 






 so sweet.
 Mom Mom came to visit!

 Mom Mom and the girls!
 Papa and Niecey came to visit! Niecey got to meet Licy for the first time!



 Papa got to hold her for the first time!
 Mom Mom love.


 Ave got a lot of swing time. :)
 Felicity spent some time in her crib for the first time. You can see how much she loved it. 
 She much prefers talking to her Daddy.
 ...and getting Daddy kisses! :)

I spend very little time sleeping, and still the days and nights go by so very quickly! I can't believe that we'll have a four week old soon. I feel so blessed to be home with both of my girls right now, and it is so nice that Daddy works so close by. He even gets to come home for lunch a few days a week. :) We are so blessed and so very thankful.

Please continue praying for Felicity's NICU friends and neighbors, Crew and Cade Chandler. 

Love and blessings...

Felicity's Newborn Pictures :)

I took these pictures when she was 8 days old and 11 days old. Ideally, newborn pictures should be taken within the first seven days of life, but we were in the NICU during that time. Regardless, I think they are beautiful. I know I'm a little bias, but she is just remarkable. :) There are a few more poses that I am saving for special things, and you'll see those later! 
I love this girl and her big sister so very much.
Enjoy the pictures!!
