8 weeks old!

Time is flying fast - but it has been fun to see her do different things every week. On Saturday there was a fundraiser for that the Hospital Foundation put on for the Porter Heart Center - it turned out to be a beautiful day. Karly enjoyed hanging out with the family while daddy was busy blowing up the balloons for all the kids to enjoy.

Isn't she a doll?

As I mentioned to Brent I wanted to add these pictures and update the blog, although he pointed out that I would be backdating it. These pictures were taken in Anchorage at the end of April when we went down to visit my brother and sister in law. The dolls belong to my niece, Sydney, who is smiling in the pictures with her. Thank you Sydney for letting us use your dolls, these are her babies. When Brent would be walking around and burping Karly, Sydney would be doing the same thing with her babies.

Summertime fun!

I received a small swim pool as a gift at Karly's shower and last night was the perfect night to put her in it. She loves water and enjoyed lounging in the pool. It is amazing the difference in the weather from last night, tonight we have clouds, chilly wind and rain. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this weekend is nice.

Diaper Champ

I love this product, you don't have to deal with trying to thread the special bags into the deal, you just place regular garbage bags in it. You can operate it without reading the instructions. And, it keeps all the smells out. I love it! If someone you know is having a baby, I highly recommend getting one of these.

An afternoon with daddy in Delta

Karly and I drove to Delta to see Brent for the afternoon. The farmer's market was open there and they were having extra activities for the Memorial Day weekend. We visited the farmer's market after eating at the Buffalo Drive In (the best place to eat during the summer in Delta) and while at there we picked out some vegetable starters to put in the garden and greenhouse. I am keeping my fingers crossed we have a warm summer so that the garden grows. Karly loves to be in the front, but as it is with the car seat, as long as you are moving - she is doing fine.

Pops and Karly

Last night, while I was at mom and dad's, Pops was holding Karly and watching his 6:30 show, Wheel of Fortune. Karly was really enjoying the show - and the picture opportunity was too cute.

First week at work.

When I was hired on at my job I was promised that I could bring my baby in to work with me. So for my baby gift from my boss I got a pack n play and accessories for my office. The day I went into labor my co-worker rearranged my office and they set up the pack n play. This week has been my first week back and it has been pretty good. I am only going in part time right now and Karly is usually napping or hanging out on my lap helping me on the computer. I plan on doing this for about 6 weeks and then I have Karly on the list to attend the day care located on the hospital campus, so I'll be able to see her during the day.
