Newborn Photos

I was so excited to open the mailbox this afternoon and see my long awaited package...the CD from Ashlee Culverhouse Photography.  I have religiously checked the box each day to see if it was there.  Finally, today it arrived!  The sweet pictures did not disappoint either.  I wanted to share a few with you.  Happy Thursday!

Four Weeks Today...

I can't believe we are getting close to ONE month!  On September 12th, Will will officially be one month, but today marks exactly four weeks from his arrival date.  We're all doing well and settling into our new normalcy.  Life with two is hard...much harder than I thought.  There isn't a spare moment to do anything.  Ansley has transitioned well though.  She had a few rough moments, but overall she did really great.  She loves to hold him and does a great job with him.  She's been a big helper in getting burp cloths and helping mommy put up everyone's clean clothes.  Will is growing and doing great too.  He's eating around 3.5-4 oz which is great.  He is a very happy and calm baby, only crying when he's hungry, tired, or needs a diaper change.  He's still eating right at 3 hours which is pretty time consuming, but I think he will start making it longer soon...I hope any way!  We've had a few rough nights, but that's to be expected.  The hardest part with two is trying to keep everything quiet at night so the whole house doesn't wake up! 

We had Ashlee Culverhouse come over to take Will's newborn pictures.  I wanted some with Ansley in there too.  She and Will both did so great at the session.  I was amazed at how she listened and cooperated! :)  Will slept for half of the session and then was awake.  He never cried and let her take all the pictures she wanted.  I can't wait to see all of them, but for now, I'll post two sneak peaks. 

We ventured out of the house for the UGA game two weekends ago.  We went down to Griffin and Allison's house.  College football watching sure has changed now that everyone has kids!  :)

For the most part though, we have been staying at home and relaxing.  I'm feeling almost back to normal and hoping to get out of the house more often.  For now though, I'm enjoying my sweet time with Will.

Obviously this was taken before Will arrived, but it's one of the only pregnancy pictures I have.  Mr. Bo Arnold took this at Griffin and Allison's shower three days before Will made his arrival.

Ansley and Will were ready to cheer on the Dawgs!  Ansley's got her Dawg cheer down! :)

I'm in love with these.

Our sweet Will...so beautiful!
