Time flies

It's only been 5 weeks (yesterday) since we were blessed with our little Paisley who's just growing right before my eyes. I had no idea how fast it would go by. I mean I've watched in amazement as my sister and SIL's raised my nephews and neices and still had NO IDEA. Here is a picture of Paisley at the Hospital when she was born:





















and here is a picture of Paisley (closest pic to the original pose I could find) at 1 month old.

HOLY MAN! I can't believe how big she is already. Right now she is swinging in her swing sleeping so peacefully and I can't help but feel completely overwhelmed with how blessed I am to be her mother. It's true that you just have no way of comprehending what it's like to be a parent until you are one.

Paisley has also graciously agreed to allow us to bottle feed her (breastmilk of course) which has been a blessing, we don't "need" to do it yet, but it's been nice for Jake, look at his face, he's just so proud to be her Daddy and feeding her.




Jake is working hard in school, he rarely gets a moment to do something fun, so we try to make the most of our weekends. This last weekend w/ MLK day we were hoping on Monday to go to Crater Lake (yeah way to grand of a trip, 2 hours each way, to try to take w/ a 1 month old, but I figured we could always try). As you can imagine it didn't work out, but we were still able to go to a local park with our friends the Shelman's and watch their daughter Mackenzie play and enjoy some sandwiches, soda and brownies while Paisley slept in her frontpack. I wish we'd taken some pics.

Oh yes and here's a pic of her 3rd bath....um yeah we forgot to take the first bath picture :)
