2 weeks with baby girl

our sweet Kirby Jane is 2 weeks old today!
and what a busy 2 weeks she has had.

let's start  at day 3.
when she went straight from the hospital to her brothers preschool graduation
we really haven't been home much since she's been born
i think we've left the house for one reason or another every day, except one.
she has been awesome!
she sleeps and eats and is really easily consolable (so far...fingers crossed this continues)

1st doctors appointment

out to lunch with the girls for Mamaw Lous birthday

she's been to the mall twice
because her mother didn't get everything for her brothers wedding before giving birth

last weekend, the Tyler crew came over!
lots of sitting outside and visiting
she loves being outside!

we went to church for Mothers Day!
such a special day with my littlest sweetheart
and big sweethearts
and cousins!

she "watched" her first oyster shucking
and lobster/crab boil

she gets LOTS of love from her brothers who are always ready to hold her
and not always be calm and safe while she eats
so mom has to find entertainment for them so they stay alive

she went to a graduation party and looked super sassy

and she has "watched" numerous Astros games with the boys

mostly, she is just getting loved on a lot

she had to get a hip ultrasound to check for hip dysplasia due to a hip click found on her exam with their Pediatrician

we head to the orthopedic hospital this week to find out if she will require any treatment or if we'll just watch it
she was perfect during the US, except for pooping all over her clothes, blanket and the hospital linens
she's a lady

she has been to 3 of her brothers tball games and slept through them all!
but i think she's his biggest fan

she has traveled to Texas
so of course a stop at Buc-ees was in order
her maiden voyage

we went to Dallas for my brothers wedding
the first night there, we stayed at Garrett and Cristies, since i only booked our hotel for 2 nights
and I really do love staying at their house!
they are the ultimate hosts 
Cristie welcomed baby girl with gifts, brownies and the most beautiful peonies!

i will post a separate blog of Josh and Kristen's wedding (baby girls 1st wedding!)

on one hand, i can't believe our girl is already 2 weeks old!
on the other hand, it feels like she's been here for months...considering all that we've done with her.
she is so so sweet.
these newborn snuggles are the absolute best and neither of us can seem to get enough.
i know it's super cliche to say this, but i simply can't remember life before her or imagine it without her.
i never imagined just how sweet life could be with our daughter.
i know we're only 2 weeks in, but if these weeks are any indication of our future with her, then we are in for lots of delightful and joy-filled days ahead.
