Another week goes by....

This past week went by way too fast!  I can't believe my precious angel will be three weeks old on Tuesday!  I can't tell you how wonderful it has been just hanging out with her.  She has been so alert and awake more than usual.  I love watching her after she nurses because she makes the cutest faces
(see below).

Happy Valentine's Day

Well, today was a special day.  Not because it was my baby's first Valentine's Day, but because it was the first day K and I were all by ourselves!  My mom left us yesterday after being here for two weeks.  Although we were very sad to see her go, it was nice to spend some alone time with my angel.  Don't get me wrong, I still had a few moments where I said to myself, "I wish your Gigi was here", but all in all it was a good day.

I just love my bouncer!!!

My sweet little Valentine

Last night, I decided to put Kingsley in a swaddler to sleep in.  I was so tired of constantly getting up to check if her blanket was covering her face.  If you know me, you know I am a worrier!  I have to say that it helped just a little bit, and I think she enjoyed sleeping in it as well.  If you have not seen Kingsley, she has the longest arms and hands!  She definitely takes after her daddy in that area.  So, we can swaddle her up in a blanket, and she will squirm her way out in less than a minute!

Beautiful Beginnings

So, as you can see, I have revamped my blog just a bit.  I know, I know, it's been awhile since my last post, but I have been a little busy!  As a new mom, of course I want to document every moment of my baby girl's life.  This blog is going to be a journal for our sweet angel!  You can still expect to see posts about my crafty finds, the inspiration I find around me, and my love for art and photography.  But mostly, you can expect to read stories about K's growth and development, her funny little quirks, and our joyful parenthood moments with our little girl.   Matt and I are just so thankful and feel so blessed to have this new Beautiful Beginning!
