Playing Catch Up

Ok, since I have waited 3 months into Kaelyn's life to start a blog, I have a little bit of catching up to do. So I'm just going to post a few pics from birth til now to show just how much she has changed and grown. Then from here on out, hopefully my photos will be up to date. We'll try at least.

Here's Kaelyn first showing attitude in the hospital. Not even 3 days old yet and already giving us a hard time.


The proud daddy and his little girl. So sweet.


This is how you make a baby burrito


This is one of my favorites while she was still in the hospital. Looking so tiny in that giant hat they gave us - but she looks like a little angel sleeping!


When we got home from the hospital, one of the first tricks my mom taught me was to lay Kaelyn on my chest to help her fall asleep - super effective! I especially liked it because it let me get some sleep too. I'm still using this method 3 months later - but I try not to overdo it...don't want to create a bad habit!

This is the exact OPPOSITE of what all the baby books say to do - but don't worry, I was keeping an eye on her in her sea of blankets. She was just so cozy.


Looking cute in pink. This outfit was short-lived since only seconds later she lost her lunch all over herself.

Looking cute in ruffles that Lesley sent us. My mom calls it the "puffy shirt"


Kaelyn loves being carried around in her baby bjorn. This week we started facing her outwards - she really likes that. Now it has become boring to just look at mommy & daddy's chest...she's ready to see the world! We'll get some pictures of that later.


Checkin out the jungle gym...not sure what to do with it yet though.

She looks like a little bag lady.

Celebrating St. Patty's Day. She had her first green beer that night. Just kidding...she is Irish though, so she'd probably like it.

I love her in little hoodies.

Again with the hoodie. I just can't get enough!


On our way to a fellow baby's birthday party. Wow my life is different from a year ago.
