Two Weeks Old!

We celebrated Anna Kate's second week with us with our first dinner out since she got here! We met Tyler's dad and family at the Cracker Barrell and hoped for the best! Anna Kate did famously, and everyone ooed and ahhed over her...of course! :) We then spent the rest of the evening with my mom and grandmother at my parents house...all in all...Anna Kate had a fun night out, and it didn't completely wreck her schedule! Yay! Maybe we won't be home-bound forever...It was definitely starting to feel that way. Another new development...Anna Kate LOVES to swing. After a fussy evening on Tuesday, my mom came over and watched Anna Kate so that Daddy and I could make an emergency run to Babies-R-Us where we saw Brad and Casey, our dear friends who gave birth to Drew, their first baby, two days before Anna Kate was born...you guys are doing great! :) We had a good time laughing about the joys of parenthood and breastfeeding...it was good to catch up, and I'm sure there will be play dates to come soon! Anyway-we picked up a swing, a mobile, and a GINORMOUS box of diapers! It was a productive (and expensive) trip, and it turns out that Anna Kate LOVES to swing! Hallelujah! Hope everyone is having a great weekend! Oh, and before I forget, Happy Birthday Fran! Hope you have a GREAT weekend! We'd love to see you soon!

At the Cracker Barrell...I'd be lying if I said that Daddy wasn't just a bit protective during our dinner!


Grandaddy and Mae Beth getting Anna Kate situated...much to Grandaddy's disappointment, Anna Kate was mainly interested in sleeping during their visit!


With Robin...She seemed to hold the pacifier in all by herself, which we all thought was pretty funny!


With Aunt Sarah and Aunt Mae Beth! They're going to be such fun aunts! Look at Mae Beth holding her like an old pro!





Hanging out with Grandmama on the porch...so sweet


It looks like Anna Kate has been hearing all this talk about her not dating until she's in college and she's giving her daddy the ugly eye! ;)


Coolin' it in the swing!

The picture of Anna & Kate and your Mom in the rocking chair is so sweet... A black & white version in a frame would be the perfect Mother's Day gift for her...:).
