We had a baby! Since I am terrible at blogging (it has been a year since I last posted anything) I'm just going to post some pictures in chronological order for your viewing pleasure:
Baby girl!
And in no time (yeah right) I was 38 weeks pregnant
40 weeks and 1 day and I was no longer pregnant.
Morgan holding Viv right after she was born.
Vivie's first diaper. Morgan looks confused and I love how Vivie is pulling her cap down.
Our Midwife for the birth (one of the two at the Birth Center) and our Birth Assistant.
Wonderful women. We had the best experience! Adrienne (Midwife) was checking
out baby and happily declared her perfectly healthy, and deceptively strong....
4 pounds and 15 ounces, 19 inches long. Perfect :)
Look at that tiny foot print...
Don't I look lovely... Vivie is quite cute though
7 hours old and ready to go home!
We continued to be in Awe the following morning
Technically it was the day after her birthday, but oh well.
Vivienne, meet Ruby
First bath
White knuckles clutching her binky
Ruby is an excellent guard dog
Enjoying our first week with baby girl
Aunt Brita came to visit
Uncle Jack and family came to visit, and brought food!
Aunt Megan and cousin Tanner came for a visit
Grandma Susie came to town and we put her to work changing diapers
Aunt Cathy and cousins came to visit
Grandma Linda surprised us and ended up coming to town to meet Miss Vivie
Vivie met her cousins in Nephi
Red was the color of the day I guess...
Vivie and I getting ready for our first outing alone...
Don't we both look excited for a 30 min drive of crying?
Vivienne's baby shower cake, made by Elana's sister Maile.
It was so beautiful I only wished I'd got a better picture of it!
Ryan hogging baby Vivie. Maren is still pregnant...
Not anymore. Vivienne, meet cousin Stella (born 39 days after Vivie)
Instant friends.
Morgan's cousins had a get together which included 3 new babies
all born in December or January. We were happy Morgan's Uncle Mike
and Aunt Nancy were in town too
Vivie is always being cute...
Vivienne likes to stand up
So we figured she'd probably enjoy riding Ruby
All cozy in her car seat and thankfully asleep!
She's getting bigger and starting to show more signs of a smile
Viv is so darn cute even when she is keeping us up at night!
The wonderful swing that Vivienne actually has taken to falling asleep in!
We used to hardly be able to set her down for more than 5 minutes
before she'd start to cry... We love this swing.
Bath time!
Grandpa Dave came to town
And we took babies and dogs to City Creek
Pooped. Vivie loves her Daddy. And this rocking chair.
Vivie always does this BIG stretch. She does it
after waking up and after feeding. I love it :)
Pretty in Pink!
At cousin Macady's baptism
Ruby likes to get some snuggle action too
Vivienne likes to "chill" on the couch...
She looks like she's watching TV with Ruby
She also now loves to put her hands in her mouth
I can't help but think of Yoda when I look at this picture.
I don't know why, but it makes me laugh :)
My Cute girl!!!
After a trip to Park City Vivie now has new clothes for her upcoming trip to Kansas
She also sits up just enough for Morgan to balance her... which he likes to do a lot
New Easter Dress! She smiles a lot these days, this is the first time
I've really been able to catch a smile on camera
Love this face
Vivie's first time taking a bottle. I think she was slightly
confused about what was going on, but did alright.
He's such a good Daddy :)
Easter Sunday with Ruby. They're friends, but we try to keep Ruby's nose, tongue and
fur in general out of Vivie's mouth. Vivie doesn't seem to mind either way.
Falling over, but happy!
Vivie eating her shirt
Big smiles for Daddy!
The Girls
Tummy time!!!
We love our little Miss Vivie. She can be quite a handful on occasion, but its amazing to me how quickly I can calm my frustration just by looking at her sweet face and realizing I would do anything for this munchkin. She is almost 3 months old and I can't believe how fast the time has flown by.
That's it, I am now completely caught up! Which is good because I can't make any promises that it won't be another year before I blog again!
