2 1/2 Weeks Old - Already!

Avery has had a busy couple of weeks, and handled everything with a pretty "chill" little attitude. Avery seems like she will be pretty strong (she can already lift her head - she did it at 2 days old; I was so scared. I asked my mother "Are they supposed to be able to do THAT yet!?"). She also seems very determined (this also translates into stubborn, which apparently I was as a baby). Avery is a great eater now that we have that figured out a bit better, too.

Avery has made her first (albeit very short) trip to the neighborhood pool, her first & second trips to the pediatrician & lactation specialist, and even her first trip to Target and Walmart. She has received lots of fun gifts & clothing and is very thankful of all of the great friends she has made in the last couple weeks!

Grandma Bricker was here to help for a couple weeks, staying longer than originally planned because of my high blood pressure issues. Thanks to all for keeping me in their prayers... I have another follow up appointment this coming Thursday and will keep you posted and any progress being made. Here are some snapshots from the last couple weeks...

Thank you Grandma for all of your help over the last couple weeks!!! :)

That's all for now... hope to speak with you all soon!

Avery Grace White



Welcome to the world little lady!!

Just wanted to let ya'll know that Avery is doing great! So far she's had her first bath, first pediatrician appointment and her first walk around the neighborhood. She's been sleeping and eating very well.

Kate is also doing well, still a little sore and a bit tired. Her blood pressure, which was high right after the delivery, is getting better!

As for me, well I'm still awesome...

Here are some pictures...more updates to come!! Enjoy!!

Baby White's Nursery

Week 40 is finally here! I am looking for every possible way to keep myself busy and yet stay well rested. Still going to work, but trying to take it easy for the most part. Today was a great day... felt better than I have in a while and actually got a lot accomplished! 

Jeff and I finally put some final touches on the nursery this past weekend, and we just wanted to share our progress! Here are some pics of Baby White's nursery...




And here are some close-ups of my "favorites"...

I love this mobile...

Here's my own handiwork!
(Can you tell I'm nesting?)
And here is Jeff's bear when 
he was a baby, Baby White's 
bear and my bear!!!









OK, hear us, baby? Your room is ready... so hopefully you will make your debut soon! We can't wait to meet you!!!

We'll keep everyone posted! 

xoxo~
Kate
