Feelings. . nothing more than feelings

Aww, the many faces of
our sweet Little Lucy. One of the greatest discoveries we encounter every day is watching the expressions that she makes. And these are just when she's
awake! She seems much more animated when she's sleeping, which make her so much fun to watch.

Cabin Fever

Lucy had her first experience with the cabin last weekend. We figured what every 6 week old needed was some fresh, mountain air to open up her lungs. She was a big hit there, as indicated by the "how many people does it take to change a diaper?" picture.
We had a real blast, but Lucy's adventure was limited to the snowmobile ride to and from the cabin, resting peacefully in her carseat. Royal can't wait until she is old enough to experience things in the open with her dad. Until next year.

Look at this!

This is the face that we wake up to each day--isn't it adorable?! We have really enjoyed learning how to be parents and the pure and simple joys that 6 pounds can be to us. What a blessing it is to be a part of something so wonderful.

A new dawn, a new day

Well, I thought we'd step into the modern world and get a blog going for our family.  For the most part, we wanted to announce the arrival of our fabulous little girl.  It has been so blissful and fun.  She truly is the center of our world.

It all started almost a month ago when we were surprised by her arrival three weeks and one day early.  The labor and delivery were luckily very quick and even with her preemie concerns, she was able to go home with us from the hospital.

Our adjustment to having this little darling has been exciting and we have had so much fun with all her little discoveries.  She still is in the preemie outfits that we had to buy after she was born because even the newborn clothes we had made her look like a Weight Watchers contestant. But of course the best news of all is that she still has all that gorgeous hair!  What fun!
