5 Weeks Old

Isabel is now 5 weeks old. It seems like she was born just 2 weeks ago. The time has flown by so fast. I'll be sad when it's time to go back to work, but at least I can take her with me. She keeps me so busy at home that it will be interesting to see how it goes when I go back to work. She has the cutest personality and smiles a lot...but she has also been known to give a few scowls as well, as illustrated in the picture below where I took her picture while giving her a bath. She got her first cold, which has not been fun. Luckily it's not too bad. Not much else has been going on... Just trying to get my new life organized and balance being a new mom :-)

Graduation!

Well, I finally graduated. When I found out that the date for graduation was so near my due date, I wasn't sure if I wanted to walk...but I was feeling good so I decided to go ahead and participate in commencement a week after Isabel was born. In other news...Isabel is now almost 2 1/2 weeks old. It's been an adventure, and I never knew how sleep deprived I'd be. She's so much fun though and already has quite the personality. We had another doctors appointment today and he said that she is now 9 pounds 4 oz., and is 22 inches long.

Cousin Noah and Isabel

Cousin Noah came over the other day and we thought it would be cute to get some pictures of the two together.
