One week old

Natalie is one week old already!  How time flies!

Just a couple of the things we did her first week. (This was besides doctor appointments and such.) We've tried to stay home as much as possible so Mommy can rest and get caught up on laundry and housework; but the weather hasn't been that great, and everyone else seems a little stir-crazy, so we've gone out for yogurt and Starbucks, and little things.

As tradition goes, one of our first adventures was to one of our favorite places...The Original Pancake House.  We have taken each one of the kids there within their first couple of weeks.  Not that they know the difference, but it's just something we've always done.  (More as a tradition for us than anything, I guess.)

So here she is with Daddy and Mommy at Pancake House...

We went out to Nona Emilia's for some great Italian food with Chad and Tori.

They have a guy all dressed up that walks around and plays the accordion. He even takes requests, so he played a couple of songs for the kids.  They loved it!

She sleeps most of the time, but she's hardly been put down since she arrived (except at night, of course!).  No complaints on her part, as you can see!

It cracks me up how huge newborn clothes are on her.

A very happy big sister.  She loves to help in whatever way she can.  She even offers to change her diaper all the time... an offer I wouldn't mind taking her up on!!
