Happy New Year!

Sorry we've been slacking on posting a little lately...

This week has been going well so far. Its just been the three of us since Monday so we've had lots of time to relax and adjust to life as a new family. I've been working half days all week so I can help Emily out and make sure she's getting enough rest. She is doing wonderful by the way. She looks amazing for just having had a baby 2 weeks ago. I snagged a good one somehow.

Katelyn is also doing very well. We went into the doctor yesterday and she is up ot 7 lbs 11 oz. Typically babies don't even get back to their birth weight until they are 2 weeks old. Our little over achiever was almost 1 pound up at 12 days! Good girl! Her belly button is doing a little better now. That was actually the main reason for the doctor visit yesterday. They used a little silver nitrate to help cauterize it so it will stop bleeding. We go back tomorrow for her 2 week checkup and they'll look at it again to make sure its doing ok.

Here are a few more photos (I know that's really what everyone wants to see).

This is Katelyn in her first dress last Sunday for church:



And here is Katelyn taking a bath with her mommy (she loves the water):
