a few firsts
So I was just looking through some pictures and thought I'd post some of them. I'm seeing a "firsts" theme coming through...I guess that will happen for a while!
Here are some pictures of Wren's first bath...she has mixed emotions on bathtime. She hates the part where we wash her legs and belly, etc. But she loooves the part where we rub her head and pamper her. Atta girl!
This was her first bath and she still had her umbilical cord. We're about ready to start her baths in her big girl spa tub!

Take a look at those curls! It's really funny, actually. Her hair really does curl right up in the back. And she has a lot of hair in the back! Kind of like a little old man...not much on the top, but lots on the sides and back!
Funny story...
Remember, this was her FIRST bath! And that means this was OUR first time GIVING a bath! So...we had some things to learn! Well, we forgot her pj's upstairs, and her diaper in the other room, so I held her in her cozy cute monster towel while Daddy ran and got what we forgot. Well....let's just say that she found this to be the perfect time to, umm...unload! So we had to re-clean the baby's butt! And the towel got a nice initiation into baby bathing!
But isn't she so cute?! (Have I mentioned how much I love pictures of crying babies?! So adorable!)
...Her first photo shoot...
I have a beautiful friend, Annie, who I lived with in college, and she does photography. She drove all the way from Greenwood to take Wren's newborn pictures and it was so much fun! This was just 2 days after coming home from the hospital. We love how everything turned out!
...Her first walk, all bundled up and cozy...
...Her first dress...
Note: We discovered that gray isn't necessarily her best color! But she wanted to wear something nice and pretty for my co-workers who were coming to visit. Unfortunately, the dress was huge and the tights literally fell off of her, so we had to get a different outfit. But not before snapping a quick pic of her first dress!
...Her first tummy time!...
She actually really seems to like tummy time! We've tried to do it pretty regularly because we want her to build her neck muscles. She's been holding her head up since the first week, but she's getting so much better!
...And this isn't a first of anything, but I couldn't handle how different she looks! This was from her first week home and she's in her tiny little birdie outfit. Her face and legs have filled out so much since then!! Her eyes look so funny, like Mr. Magoo!
She's still such a sweet girl! I'm sure we've got plenty more firsts to come! We're working on our Christmas decorations this week so hopefully some good pictures of that to come!
