New Views of Brielle

Brielle is enjoying time with Daddy in the new rocking chair from Grandpa and is doing great with tummy time.  I can't believe my baby is 4 weeks old! 

Our Steelers Nation Baby

After a nice bath, we discovered that we had a Steelers baby!

Goofy Smile for Grandpa

Grandma was able to catch this shot of my little "popeye".

Sleeping, Baths, and Beauty

The past few days, Brielle has been spending a lot of time sleeping and has gotten two baths for diaper reasons.  She loves to be cuddled and fake smiles a lot.  We've been working on tummy time and she is a champ.  She holds her own head up most of the time.  It's amazing how strong she is for being only 11 days old.  We are lacking for sleep but definately not in love for this sweet little girl.  We can't imagine not having her in our lives.
