Christmas Fun!

Well we had an awesome first Christmas this year with our little Lorelai....we managed to make ALL of the rounds (whew!) without complication, although we didnt stay as long as we usually would because she and I had a little cold. But, it was still what I would call a success! Here are a few pictures from the big day: The Little Family Christmas 2007
You can tell we starve this child. :) Look at those cheeks!

Baby in a stocking!
Don't you loooooooove her HUGE bow that i made?!

This Christmas was fun but I can't until Christmas 2008 when she can enjoy opening her own presents and kinda know whats going on! Next year is going to be so fun and exciting, I cant wait! Hope everyone had as much fun as we did!

Hospitals Suck.

Well for everyone who wasn't aware, I have been in the hospital pretty much since my last blog. I went to the emergency care center on Tuesday because I was having severe abdominal cramps, nausea and fever...They transfered me to Methodist hospital where they discovered I had developed an infection in my uterus....they said it is somewhat common to get after having a baby, but very unusual for it to take this long to develop. While I was there for what should have been a 2 night stay, however, I got a full-blown version of a small stomach bug that Shawn had just gotten over. So they kept me until my fever went down and I stopped throwing up. Lots of fun. I just went home last night (friday). Thanks to everyone who was praying for me....that was one of the hardest week sof my life being without my 3-week-old who I hadn't left for more than one hour before this. I am so thankful to be at home, without an IV in my arm, holding my sweet Lorelai.
Lots of Love,
Katie

3 weeks!

Well Miss Lorelai will be 3 weeks old tomorrow and I cant believe it! I hope time doesn't fly by this fast the rest of our lives, I am trying to soak up every minute but the days pass so quickly. Lorelai is such an angel. I couldnt have asked for a sweeter, sleepier baby...she only squeals when she is hungry and never cries. She is a hardcore snuggler....never likes to be put down which is fine with me because I never want to put her down! I sometimes wonder what I ever did before her. Here are some updated pictures:

Thats all for now!
