Harley Elizabeth

On Thursday, June 10, we welcomed our baby girl Harley Elizabeth into the world.
She was 7lb 5oz and 20 1/2 inches long. She looked like a little doll- so tiny!!
(At least to us- Big Brother was a whopping 8lb 8oz, and the same length!)
She had a very healthy set of lungs... she didn't just cry when she was born, she screamed!
But she calmed right down when she was close to me or her Daddy, so we didn't mind!
Her apgar scores were great... 8 and 9, just like Big Brother.
But a couple of days later, she had to go on the billi light.
Our little glow worm.


(I LOVE this picture... I think the glow makes her look like an angel!)


James is such a good big brother. He loves Harley (or as he says, Haa-eeee!) He wants so badly to help... with everything! Bottles, diapers, blankets, pacis, you name it. Unfortunately, he is about as gentle as a 2 year old little boy!I'm worried that he will love her to death!

But at least he likes her!

We are so blessed... two beautiful, healthy children.
Everyone's adapting as well as we can... I'm typing this with Harley sleeping in my lap!
Overall, however, life is good! Harley is a GREAT sleeper, and in general pretty laid back.
Which is a good thing, because...
WE'RE MOVING!!!!
Please don't ask when.
We have no idea.
We have to sell the house first.
To do that, we have to finish all of our DIY projects.
And do quite a bit of painting.
And move a LOT of stuff into storage so our house looks as big as it is.
With a 2 year old, a newborn, and 2 dogs.
And Jason's new job, which requires roughly 2 weeks of travel a month.
Every month.
We may be in Mobile a while!!
Updates to come.
Maybe.
If I find time to blog about this.
If not, updates will be on Facebook or Twitter.
(Hey, I do what I can!)
Have a great week! Time to feed the baby!
