Week Two...

March 10, 2012
Maeve and Mommy waited for our guests to start arriving on our tummies...tummy time is not Maeve's favorite, but she does love finding her hands.  Even in her ultrasound pictures, she always had her hands by her face.  She continues to love to have her hands at her face.  


Tummy Time...

Jenny Frecon Smith came to visit first.  Jenny had helped me make the playlist that I listened to during labor and delivery.  She is also the person who will be giving Maeve her piano lessons when she's ready!

Next, we had Uncle Bernie, Aunt Kathy and Sloane come over to visit.  Sloane wore her hat that I had crocheted for her for Christmas.  So Maeve wore hers and hung out on the floor with Josh and Sloane.

Next, Nan and Sammie came over to visit Maeve.  Sammie was in love with Maeve.  He kept saying he wanted one!!  He asked Heidi why his Mommy couldn't have another.  He also offered to babysit.

We had more visitors!!  Markus, Christie, and Willa came by on a beautiful Sunday.  After lunch, we decided to walk all over the property.

Thanks to Markus for the great photography!! After seeing these great shots, Josh and I decided we definitely needed a digital SLR camera for capturing pictures of Maeve.

We got all dressed up for Nan and Trudy to come over.  This is Maeve's first day with a headband.  She could have cared less though.  



Later in the afternoon, Mave and I went for a walk around the property to visit Josh who was pruning some of the apple trees.

We had a pretty mellow day.  We are getting so much better at sleeping at night.  I am able to get 3 hours stints of solid sleep between feedings.  Maeve still likes to nap a little after breakfast.  So I usually use this opportunity to have a photoshoot with Maeve.  This series shows her love of her hands on her face. 

Then, Josh had some Tummy time with Maeve before we went out to Union Jacks for Strawberry Habanero wings!! Yum!!  Maeve did great at her first outing with Josh and I.  She slept the whole time, and didn't mind the wings later that night  ;~)

Aunt Jess, Melina, Johanna, and Gianna came over for lunch.  Maeve loved hanging out with her cousins!!

 Then, later that night, Maeve's umbilical cord fell off!! I am not sure if it will be an innie, and outie, or something in between...




Then, we went to tell Daddy, who was burning a bonfire...
