I just started working this past Tuesday! It was so overwhelming... I should've eased into it.. I instead worked a double booked 10 hour day!! Not fun :( I missed my little baby so much, but she is in the best care... her Dad! 
I love experiencing Natalie's little mini milestones. Everyday she's growing.. I love spending every second I can with her. It's hard capturing the first few smiles but i was lucky this morning to have the camera just in time! Natalie is 6 weeks and is now expressing to us what a happy girl she is! I woke up to one noisy girl this morning and as soon as I looked at her she was wide awake with big bright eyes and a big smile on her face! After getting her dressed and ready for the day i laid her down and told her what a pretty pretty princess she is, and she got so excited, kicking her legs while cooing and smiling at me!! What a little sweetheart!
The first thing I asked the doctor when Natalie was born was if she had chubby cheeks!!! Natalie's cheeks are getting chubbier everyday! We love to squish them, and pinch them, and of course kiss them! We pretty much kiss her face off any chance we get! She just has that face you can't resist!
Am I a terrible mother to think this is the cutest picture in the world?? This little girl has a tendency of pulling her headbands over her face... if i turn my head for 2 seconds I hear a little grunt and there she is with her little headband across her eyes! This photo is perfect it captures her little puckered lips with those adorable chubby cheeks!
Monday we went to visit Grandpa Eugene Garrity. Grandpa is 92 and so sharp! He was emotional holding Natalie and told us Grandma was right there looking over his shoulder at our little baby. What a beautiful moment. Our daughter is truly blessed to have such a great family. One thing I really admire about Grandpa is his amazing scrap books. He has kept a scrapbook for every family event dating back to even before Daniel's dad was born! The Garrity family history is amazing. Grandpa was even on the cover of Forbes magazine! I look forward to our visits and hearing all the fun Garrity stories. 
I just have to say.... I flipping Love this little Girl! She has been such a joy to have! She is 3 weeks old and everyday I see her grow. Her eyes are so big and love to look around. I swear we lucked out with the perfect baby. She NEVER cries! She is noisy but not in a fussy way. If she needs us she makes these little grunting sounds. It's really cute. For those of you who are expecting.... cherish it! The whole process of having a baby is truly a miraculous experience. I would do it all over again... well in a few years!
I just love these little head bands Rachel told me about! They're from peanutposh.com... they even have cute ties for boys! I can seriously make a head band to match any outfit!
Yesterday Laurie came over with Zach, Julia, and Ashlyn to visit Natalie! It was fun having them over.
Today my friend Stephanie came over with her son Anders Kai! It was a treat.. she brought me lunch and vacuumed for me. I really appreciate the help since my body is still recovering. Anders is now 3 mos. old he was Natalies age the first time i met him... babies grow soooo fast! Hopefully in time our play dates will be a little more eventful... Clearly Natalie would rather sleep than socialize.
