Rhea will be 3 weeks old tomorrow! Goodness it's going fast! It was kind of a topsy turvy week this last week. Grandma Sue went home on Tuesday and Joe went back to work also on Tuesday... so it was just Mommy and Rhea for a few days. Grandma Sue came back on Friday. Rhea is starting to figure out that nighttime is nighttime and starting to get her on a schedule during the day. So far so good, Mommy is getting a little more sleep lately and feeling lots better. We didn't have very many visitors this week or do much exciting other than eat, poop and nap.. so there aren't near as many pictures! But I'll post what we have...

Morning playtime
Hello family and friends!
Rhea is doing very well = ) I took this video this morning and thought I'd share it. She really likes to look around. Her hiccups and sneezes are so cute!!
More pictures to come at the end of the week = )

Growin' so fast!
My goodness, our baby is 2 weeks old already! The last 2 weeks have been wonderful! Having Grandma Sue here to help out has been such a great blessing. Rhea is a very good baby! She eats well and sleeps well, we are SO blessed. Most often the plan for the day is to sit around and look at Rhea = ) A bath is on today's agenda, otherwise we're just takin' it easy.
Friday our friend Katina came out to take Rhea's baby pictures. We've only seen one of the final results, but they are SO cute! Katina does a great job, and of course Rhea is a super cute baby!! Can't wait to be able to show of more of them = )
We went to church yesterday morning and then to Grammy Kay's for lunch and some play/scrapbooking time. Grandpa Bill got here yesterday late afternoon. Rhea was rather sleepy but this morning she's showing those bright eyes.
Some more photos from the week:
Thank you for your continued prayers and support, we praise God for all the loving friends and family we have in our lives!

One week old already!!
Oh goodness, everyone was right, the time sure flies!!
Overall, Rhea is doing very well. She eats fairly well, sleeps good, great reflexes and strong little muscles. She is just a wonderful little baby!! Joe has worked this 2nd half of the week so I know he is anxious to get to be home with us on his next off week. Grandma Sue has been such a great help and blessing. Uncle Matt came to stay with us this weekend and he's really enjoyed holding and loving baby Rhea. Grandpa Bill will be coming as soon as he can, which is next Sunday evening after he finishes another quarter of classes. I know he also is anxious to be here. Grammy Kay and Auntie Sarah have come out to visit often and we love having them here.
Rhea's only adventure outside the house thus far was her Dr appt on Friday. It went very well. She slept the whole way there, didn't even make it out of the neighborhood awake. But this doesn't surprise me at all since she even slept in the womb in the car. So... the vibrating seat is also a hit. But she does sleep in her crib at night just fine which is a total blessing! The forecast for the week is supposed to be absolutely AMAZING so we will definitely get out our Cadillac (Jeep stroller) and cruise around the neighborhood some!!
Today is Sunday, we did not venture out for church simply because we are still getting a morning routine figured out and since Joe is working/sleeping I'd prefer to go for the first time as a family = ) However, this morning Rhea and I jammed to some Hillsong United LIVE while we nursed. She really seemed to like it. Yay for worship!! No major plan for today, we're just chillin' and takin' it easy... a good day of rest for all.
Ok, I've spent a good majority of the afternoon trying to figure out how to put a slideshow up on here. No success = ( So... please be patient, I have one ready, just have to figure out how to get it in here.

Welcome Rhea Renee
Hello Everyone!!!
Little miss Rhea Renee came at 9:30am on Monday the 7th. She was 6 lbs. 15 oz. and 20.5 in. long. Labor and delivery went very smooth. The entire experience was incredible. We had a great nursing staff at the hospital and many supportive family and friends came to visit.
If you are friends with either Joe or I on facebook, we have a video posted of us naming her. I am working on composing a slideshow of her first week to post on here soon = )
Thank you for all the continued love, prayers and support!

Waiting....
Baby girl is still cozy and warm inside the womb. We really aren't doing much of anything too exciting lately. We went to Kay's Thursday night for supper and then hung out with some friends last night. The carseat is in the car and all the bags are packed and ready to go. So we watch movies, read books, and play cards with Al and Linda as we wait.........
