Family of Three

As many of you know, it's been just over two weeks since Baby Koranda arrived. Our beautiful little Ada Beatrice was born Friday, May 8, at 2:44 a.m., right on time on her scheduled due date, and my birthday. I recall saying quite adamantly that I wasn't planning to share my birthday, but it seems she showed us right off the bat who's really in charge around here. I only needed one look at her to realize I didn't really mind after all...:)

The days since Ada's birth have gone by extremely fast - a blur of diaper changes and nursing, trying to get enough sleep, and getting used to life with this new little person that's completely dependent on us. Things seem to be settling down, and I think we are starting to establish a daily routine of sorts, although everything changes so fast it's hard to know how long current patterns will last. For the most part, she's a very calm baby, but definitely has a good set of lungs and lets us know when she's hungry or needs to be changed.

We've been taking lots of pictures, but she hasn't given us much time to get them on the computer and look through them. I'm hoping to get more pictures and stories posted throughout the week, but for now here are a few of my favorite pics.

Baby Ada just hanging out.


Love this outfit; can't resist snuggling her and calling her my little peanut when she's wearing it.

Absolutely love this sweet picture of Ada with her Daddy.

One last note before I sign off; we're ready for visitors, so if you'd like to come out just give us a call.
