I found some pictures earlier when I was looking through some files on our computer. Is it way too late to post some of her "newborn" pictures? I don't think so. I meant to start this blog when she was born...but let's be honest. During those first few weeks, I was just trying to string together a couple of hours of sleep at a time. Did I really think that I would be posting pictures and documenting her life each day? Ok, I did think that. But I was REALLY TIRED. So tired that I don't think I even remember how tired I was. That being said, here are a few pictures from the first days of her life...
Here I am...5:00am on October 19, 2009. And there is Ashlyn in my belly getting ready to make her first appearance in the world! I remember that nervous/excited feeling as we were driving to the hospital. Knowing our life was about to change in a really big way.
Our first "family" photograph...love this one...so happy and tired and excited and amazed...
So tiny...we welcomed Ashlyn into the world at 12:40pm on Monday, October 19, 2009. She weighed 6lbs and 9 oz.
Happy daddy home from the hospital with his baby girl...
She is just 5 days old here...we are on our way to her first official doctors appointment. She weighed 5lbs and 15oz at this appointment. That is soooooooo small! Oh, they grow so fast... And I mean, look at those cheeks. Don't you just want to kiss and squeeze them?
It goes by really fast. Ashlyn is such a little miracle. Thinking back to the first ultrasound when she looked just like a little peanut...and now she is this little person who smiles at me and kicks her legs in excitement when I pick her up after work. LOVE this little girl.

So sweet, and so beautiful. You made me remember that feeling of being in the hospital and those first few days at home, too! And how tired I was...
