This and that

Last weekend Robert's brother and wife came to visit us from Gary, IN. We usually head to Gary once a year to spend a few days with them but this year probably wouldn't happen with a newborn so they came to us. Nevyn has a favorite picture on the wall - it's a guaranteed smile every time, too cute! Yesterday it was in the 70's so we decided to bust out the adorable hat g-ma Patty gave Nevyn for Easter and head outside. This was her first time being outside without the being in the car seat or having a blanket covering her face.

8 Weeks/2 Months

Weeks or Months...whatever...Nevyn weighs in at 12 lbs and is 22 inches long. She smiles a lot and makes quite a few sounds now. She can hold her head up for a short period of time and keeps herself occupied in the bassinet (for a few minutes anyway). I head back to work on Monday - mixed feelings about that but it will be nice to get back into my work routine.

1st Road Trip

This past weekend we headed to Minneapolis to visit Robert's mom. Nevyn slept well in the car and we had our first diaper change in a public restroom. It might not seem like a big deal to the veteran mothers out there, but I've never experienced this or even paid attention to what bathrooms have a changing station and/or where it's located. I have to say, we did extremely well even with a poopy diaper! We headed back home on Sunday so no fancy outfit pictures, but I felt I had to do something for her 1st Easter:)
