Jacquelyn's First "Little" Visitors

Although they did not get to go into the NICU to meet Jacquelyn she has already had some visits from her Best Friend, Addison, and her Big Cousin, Shaun.  Addison and Shaun had a fun play date a few months ago and were very excited to be reunited. 

Addison was being so sweet and about to give Shaun a kiss when I snapped this shot.

David, Shaun and Erica drove all the way up from Corpus Christi to surprise me and meet Baby Jacquelyn the day after she was born.  It was so much fun to see them and their trip to Fort Worth means the world to me.  Thanks again guys for making the trip.  We can't wait to see you again at Thanksgiving.

Progress...

These last few weeks I have been busy taking pictures but not uploading them for your viewing pleasure.  Tonight as I was going through them I found some belly shots I have not shared that show our progress throughout the pregnancy.  Here is an update on Week 32 and 36.

I have cropped my head out of this picture because I had already been in the hospital for over five weeks at this point without make up, hair products or natural sunlight.

Mark looking good and holding up well at week 32. 

Mark and I are so blessed with our early arrival and enjoy watching her grow instead of my belly. 

Helpful Hints

As a helpful hint Mark and I thought we would share some pictures of us as babies to help you decide who Baby Jacquelyn looks the most like.  Happy Voting!

Jacquelyn all fresh and clean after a bath. 18 days old in this picture.

Since she has Gene Lyons hair does this mean I get extra votes?

Rachel - 9 months old

Mark - Brand New

Look Ma, no hands!!

Mom decides to let Jacquelyn do most of the work during her 1st bottle feeding!

Someone is hungry!

Rachel bottle feeds Jacquelyn for the second time.

New Poll

Thanks to everyone who participated in our "What is Baby Eaton Made Of" poll.  The polls closed early and the results are in 69% of our friends and family said "Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails" and boy did Jacquelyn surprise us.  Our precious baby girl arrived at 3:33pm on July 17th.

So time for a new poll..."Who does Jacquelyn look like?"  Please vote.  We can't wait to see the results.

Jacquelyn - One Week Old

This week has been full of excitement and numerous milestones for our little one.  Today Jacquelyn turned One Week Old.  Mark and I are taking pictures like Japanese tourists and already have a rather large collection.  We know how anxious everyone is to see pictures so we thought today would be a great day to share a few with you.

Happy One Week Birthday

She had an exciting afternoon of eating from a bottle and wore herself out.
