12 degrees below zero

A few pictures from the past 2 weeks or so...

This is one of my favorite pictures to date...don't you just want to snuggle under the covers with her!? Love the hair, too...
Sitting with Daddy

Showering with Mama...she loves showering with us! Just "sits" there like she's is being pampered or something!

Loves the Boppy...not the Boob Buddy, as Uncle Jim calls it! (okay, in his defense, there is a brand that is actually called that!)


First day of Daycare...blah...rather stay home with Daddy!

First day of daycare...rather stay home with Mama!

Hanging with our buddies, the Wolff's. Didn't realize how blurry this picture was until it was too late! Beth & Zak were getting some good practice for their little Wolff baby, who is scheduled to be born this summer. HURRAY!

These next pictures are from today (Friday, January 16)...Eyla's suggestions for what to do on a day when the temperature is -12 degrees at 8am:
Swing...
Take a warm bath...

Keep your clothes on...its too cold to be streaking!

Nap...which she is still currently doing!

Now, if you're thinking the last 4 pictures resemble the activities that Eyla does everyday, you are CORRECT!! The only thing that was really different is the I kept turning up the heat and checking her hands to make sure they weren't cold!! Jas joined us for some corn chowder (Renee's recipe that we love) at lunch...now we've got dough rising for homemade pizza for supper. Jas is making a stop at the grocery on the way home for some milk and a few other things so we aren't tempted to go back out tonight. Hope you're all staying warm whereever you are...although I know a few of you that might read this are battling fall-like weather in exotic places like Texas (Shaffer's!)!!

Enjoyed the Pictures SOOOOOOOO much. Absolutely love the following: the lounging on the boppy. the bathing...she looks freakin' LONG! sleeping with funky hair. ...actually absolutely loved them all!
I think she's getting bigger! no?
tell her STOP until I see her again.
love you all.

- was mom crying previous to the "first day of day-care" photo? : )

It's called My Breast Friend!, not Boob Buddy.

geez... I am going to lose all credibility for consulting new and expectant parents.

I stand corrected, Jim. Sorry to misrepresent your obvious knowledge!!
