Week 3: All by ourselves

Week 3 was our first taste of our new routine since we spent Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday on our own. We spent our time like most parents with newborns would (I imagine anyway...), sleeping whenever the baby slept, eating leftovers from Rob's parents or ordering take out, and lounging in our pajamas most of the day. Robbie's favorite part of the day was cudding with Bella when she was waking up in the morning. She makes the funniest (surprisingly loud!) grunting noises in the morning while trying to wake up. It's usually a 30 minute process of grunting, stretching, and sighing for her to wake up...must be her daddy's daughter :) Here are a few photos from our time at home:

On Friday night my brother, Neal, and his fiance, Ashley drove in from Washington, D.C. where they live. They spent the weekend with us (although Robbie had to work most of it) lounging, watching football, making lunch/dinner runs for us, and going on a 10 mile run (Neal and Ashley, not me and Bella...haha!). We got to chat about us adjusting to life as new parents and them adjusting to engaged life...They are having a July 7, 2012 wedding and have a lot planned already! We had tons of fun taking photos of baby Annabelle with her uncle and aunt:

So precious!


Neal was so excited to meet his neice! I walked into the living room on Saturday to find Neal sitting next to Bella explaining, "I'm your uncle and you're my niece. Yeah! That means your mommy is my little sister." I think he explained the whole family tree to her and Annabelle was looking up at him intently as though she somehow understood this detailed explanation. So cute! 






All five of us! Ashley impressed me with her ability to get us all in the shot of the first attempt!
