Evie's First Meeting



Today we took Evie to the Kingdom Hall for the first time- she did so well!! She was awake and alert when we got there so everyone got to oh and ah over her. I fed her and changed her and then Daddy rocked her for a bit and she fell asleep in Mommy's arms. She slept for the rest of the meeting like an angel. :) Above is a photo of the babies in our congregation right now- Stephanie's on the left with baby Emma who's almost four months old, Jen's in the middle with one month old Micah, and then there's Evie and I- Evie will be three weeks old tomorrow. I can't believe how fast time is going!

Evie also got her first real bath Friday night, as her umbilical cord stump finally fell off, and we wanted to be squeaky clean for her newborn photos Saturday!!! I'm SO excited to see the photos (which we should have by the end of the week),but it was way more stressful than I expected. Evie was really fussy and would NOT go to sleep, which is of course the desired state for a newborn when taking all of those cute photos. She was awake for much of the shoot, which I know will make for cute photos, but I wish she had slept for more than the 25 minutes that she did. Oh well- another lesson for me on how I can't plan everything! ;) I'll share the photos when we have them, but here's one from bathtime.

  1. I can't believe how good she was!! I only heard one little squeak and that's it! I hope they are all that easy for you. Actually sorry I dont, I hope she makes a little more noise to drown out Emma's babbling
