Week 3 Highlights

It's hard to believe that week 3 is already over and that we are starting week 4 with our daughter. It still doesn't seem like we are parents. Tonight we had our first date without Addelynn as Mimi volunteered to watch the kiddo. Our date ended up being a huge ordeal to print out birth announcements followed by dinner and pie at Baker's Square.

Last night Addelynn made it almost 6 hours from one feeding to the next. Must have been the prayers she said (she folded her hands herself - that was not posed). All I can say is that I am excited and hopeful that this trend will continue. Who knows though. Every time I think I've figured out her schedule, she does something totally different the next day.

She also had another bath and pooped twice during it. We had just started when she went the first time, so I drained the water and started over. Then she did it again. So bath time was longer than expected.

Grandpa and Mimi have to head home tomorrow, and Mimi has already threatened a kidnapping several times. We'll see if she gets out of here without stealing the baby. Needless to say, their help has been amazing over this week. Hopefully I can make it for a few days next week on my own. I just have to realize not as much is going to get done.

Below are some of our favorite pictures from the third week with our daughter. Enjoy!
