Baby's first four days at home...

Hi Everyone,
I am Jewel and I wanted to share a few of my 'firsts':

-first visit from Health Nurse Heidi: had cold hands, thought her job title and name sounded like a super hero
-first night at home: mistook it for a college frat party... stayed up late and spit-up all over the place
-first manicure: look great but still waiting on the pedi
-first bubble bath: put up a good fight
-first straight-trajectory poo shooting: missed mom... will require more practice
-first successful escape from the house: my parents had to drive me
-first of many photos with my friend the unicorn: ha!... like they’re really that soft
-first visit to walmart: people did NOT respect my privacy (must look into getting a 'pope-mobile')
-first ‘death-stare’ at the lady not respecting my privacy: shocked she lived through it
-first visit to Nana & Papa's: pretended to sleep the whole time... suckers!

Now, a short photo-documentary...



"... and I swear the lady at walmart looked just like this"



I look like a bug... a really cute bug


so that's where I get all my 'pretty' from!

I can turn the 'cuteness' on like it's a light switch

What's he so smiley about?

must... fight...

resistance is futile!

I've got 'the smiley one' right where I want him!


put up your dukes

he takes up too much room on the bed

don't be fooled... this is NOT a real unicorn


you'd swear I was on the ejection seat at the PNE

I love Jewel! I just want to cuddle her and watch her little faces all day long.

Those pictures are great! That last one is hillarious! And there are a few times in there I saw both Adrian and Liz.

Good job guys - she's perfect!

She is so beautiful! I thought she was adorable at the hospital but I can't even believe my eyes now!! WOW!!! Lucky her to have such wonderful parents! About the awaiting of a pedicure?!?! Can't wait til she's old enough to get one! CONGRATS again :)

She's so sweet guys! Thanks for letting me snuggle her the other day! I hope you're doing well and getting a little bit of rest!

Hi guys! You do realize that Jewel Bug is really going to hate those photos when she becomes a teenager. Trust me, a teenager angry over photos is not a pretty picture. Beaz is very upset about one photo in our Christmas newsletter. Love you guys and can't wait to see that little one.
