Big Day
This morning at 8:30 I was not feeding my little Caroline like I've done nearly every day since her birth. I was back at work. After 12 weeks I returned to my job today. However, at 8:30 this morning I was telling one of my bosses that in a few weeks time I am resigning from my position. It's official...this is the beginning of the end of my time there! It is certainly a bittersweet feeling. I am so excited to be doing something new and more meaningful to me, but I will miss some of the people that I work with. I've been there for almost three years - I see these people more than I see my own family!! It is time for me to move on though. I am just so thankful that I have a husband who truly wants me to do whatever makes me happy - and I am so blessed that his career allows me to do so. Let the countdown begin...

Caroline's First Service Project
This morning Adam, Caroline, and I went to the Wylam Public Library in Fairfield to volunteer at the Rotaract School Supply Give Away. We got there and helped stuff bags with paper, folders, pencils and other school supplies. We were supposed to be there from 8-12. From 8-9 we were going to be making bags and from 9-12 we would be handing them out. The school supplies got there a little late so we had all the bags stuffed in 25 minutes. The line started forming a little before 9 and everyone worked so hard to get the bags passed out and by 9:30 we were completely done!! We passed out supplies to over 100 students. Several people came after we were done and we had to turn them away. It was a great experience and I hope that we get to do it again next year!!

Caroline was such a great helper!

Hair Bows
I have started putting little bows in Caroline's hair. She looks so adorable!! I just love all the cutesy stuff that comes along with having a little girl. We (actually just me, C slept the whole time) had such a fun time picking out bows at the store.

In other Caroline news, she's been taking a morning nap and an afternoon nap each day. It's been great. I've gotten so much done. Her naps range from thirty minutes to two hours so hopefully they'll get more regular and predictable soon. I also love that after each nap I get to walk into her room and look over crib and get a huge smile. It just melts my heart. She's not smiling here, but she's just hanging out in her crib when she should have been sleeping :)

Tummy Time
Caroline isn't a huge fan of tummy time. She'll tolerate it for a while but then she just starts to lick the playmat or blanket or whatever she's laying on...and then she cries. She's a silly little bug. Anyway, she seemed to really enjoy it the other day so I just had to share.
It all starts out great...so much fun!!

Getting a little tired of tummy time. Daisy is checking on her little sis.

Enough of this - time to sleep!!! Daisy decides to join in on her favorite activity.

Two Years!!
Two years ago tomorrow I married my best friend and the best man I know!! So much happened in our first year of marriage - Adam graduated law school, took and passed the bar, accepted a job, and we bought a house. Year two has been even more exciting!! Shortly after our first anniversary we found out that we were going to have a baby. Neither of us would have ever guessed that we'd be celebrating our two year anniversary with a two month old, but clearly God had great plans for us!!
I think that our wedding was the most fun and most beautiful wedding that I have ever been to. It was perfect and luckily we had amazing photographers that captured it perfectly so I get to look at the pictures and relive the most amazing day!!




Happy Anniversary Adam!! I love you more anything!! I am so honored to be your wife. Your are so kind and loving to Caroline and me, we are so lucky to have you as a father and husband. It has been the best two years ever and I am looking forward to many more.
