Thanksgiving and lots of family

Things have been going well, we have been introducing Elizabeth to a lot of her family over the past couple of weeks. Richard has been remodeling the kitchen...that's a whole other story...so I decided that I needed to not be here with Elizabeth when that was all going on. So, we set out to Grandma Garrison's house to meet Christy and her girls, and Aunt Anne (unfortunately we didn't get a picture with Anne)

My Cousin Lindsey thinks I'm pretty cute!

For Thanksgiving Richard's brother and wife (Dale and Marie) came up from Albuquerque to visit. This was Elizabeth's first chance to meet them. It was a great time.

Aunt Marie was happy to meet me

Uncle Dale...he's alright!

On Thaksgiving Day we went to Grandma Parkes' house and Great Grandpa had so much fun holding Elizabeth, it was very neat to see.

Great Grandpa Eicher decided to take a nap with me.

This is just one of the many cute pictures we have taken of our little one!

Update on Elizabeth

We have been trying to get this blog thing up and going, and it is truly amazing how little time I have had to do this. After a rough start with Elizabeth being jaundiced and Mommy trying to recover, we are now beginning to get things figured out, so I wanted to get things rolling so everyone can keep up to date on our precious girl.

For a small little one, Elizabeth sure takes up quite a bit of my time. Now that she is almost two months old, we are starting to get a little bit of a routine down. We have made more outings lately and she is sleeping through the night. Mom and Dad are adjusting to their new way of life and love to look at our little girl. She is really starting to smile a lot and is even talking some. Even though she doesn't get to see her Daddy during the day, she loves her Daddy time at night. This allows Mommy to take a shower and do all that other stuff that she used to take for granted. Here are some pictures of our little one. We will try to keep this updated, but I am not sure how often I will get it done.

Our Family
