What a Wonderful Baby!

The last few days of being home from the hospital have been great.  Spending all day with our little one really makes us feel so blessed to have such a healthy and beautiful baby.  Thanks to Grammy for all of her help over the past few days.  With her help, we've actually got some sleep and had some hot cooked meals.  Mom is doing awesome!  She's so patient and loving.  I don't think I can say this enough - she is going to be a GREAT mother!

Cricket had her first Doctor's appointment yesterday so she got to get dressed up and take a ride in the car.  Grammy bought her some pink outfits so she got to wear one of those.  She loves the car rides but hates being put into her carrier.  See pictures below of her 1st pink outfit.

Cricket and I had a good moment this evening.  We got to watch our first University of Illinois basketball game together (see last picture).  Cricket was getting frustrated with the 2-3 Zone defense Illinois was running, but felt good about their backcourt play - she so intense already.  :-) 

When she's not eating or sleeping, we have managed to get some really cute pictures of Allison.  She makes some pretty funny faces sometimes and loves to sleep with her hands in the air.  Hope you enjoy the pictures of Our Baby Cricket.






















































Go Illini!
