Sweet Anna Banana. You've been with us now for 10 full days and we can't even IMAGINE life without you now. You are so sweet. So pleasant. So even tempered. What a HUGE blessing you are to us. You've had a very busy first 10 days of life. There has been lots of outfit and bow changes, tons of snuggling with mom in bed and lots of passing you around between your brothers. Here are some of the things you have done in your first 10 days on this earth:
* You went to your first baseball game to watch your big brother Parker play in his last game. We almost got hit by 2 foul balls and Parker was getting really mad. He yelled, "DO NOT HIT MY MOM AND BABY!" Protective of you already I see. ♥ We opted to move to another place on the bleachers.
* You went to your first movie. I took the boys to see Misfit Pirates and we sat in the back row. There were only about 10 other people in the theatre and you slept through the whole thing. It was nice to get out of the house and stay somewhere cool since it was almost 100 degrees out today.
* You went on your first date. Well, with mom and dad. We went to Chili's to celebrate my birthday (a day early). You were a great date. You slept through the entire dinner and slept through a quick trip to the mall as well.
* You had your first photo shoot....as I mentioned in an earlier post. SO excited to get those pictures back soon!
* You have been an excellent sleeper. You sleep about 4 hours at a time and as soon as you're fed and changed you are fast asleep again. AMAZING.
*You already have your dad wrapped around your little finger. He has come home for lunch just to see you and he has come home early from work a couple of times just because he MISSES you so much. You lucky girl.
* I can hardly even stand to set you down for a few minutes. I don't care if I spoil you by holding you all day long. I am so in love and so content just starring at you all day. I love you tiny sister. Thank you for coming to our family. We are so happy you are here.

There really is nothing better in life than snuggling with your own brand new little one. I'm a little jealous right now (although NOwhere near ready for a new one anytime soon :)). I'm so glad you are enjoying every last minute of it--and glad you get to document so much of it on the blog.
Oh, and if we head up to Idaho Falls anytime soon, I am so coming to see the baby (and you, of course!)!
I still see Parker in her, but with these new pictures I can also see you. My favorite one is the last one, perhaps you are still in the hospital and you are taking the photo with your other hand? ANyway I love that one. See you soon! Nikki
I love how within a matter of days it feels like these little ones have always been with us :) She is so precious, glad you are all soaking it up.
