Jade giving Zoe love eyes


Grandma Kathy came to visit for a week!! Jade had so much fun baking cookies and cinnamon buns with her. Grandma was our "Cooking and Cleaning" Fairy. We didn't even lift a finger all week (hence why my blog is now caught up). Thank you Queen Grandma Kathy (as my mom calls herself).


Jade also decided to start using the potty when Zoe came home. We're pretty excited that she has been "dry and clean" for over 2 days now :)


Sometimes they are both cute and quiet....

and sometimes they are both yelling at the same time.

See you in April!


It was sad to say good-bye to Grandma and Grandpa Wallace. We LOVED their company :)

Audrey has started a FABULOUS tradition of giving all the daughters-in-law pedicures after they have babies. I'm not going to lie, this tradition is one of my all-time favorites :) It's nice to feel "pretty" again after you've had a baby (and kind of feel like you've been driven over by a semi-truck...if you know what I mean).


Jade had a small piece of food in her bangs (you can see it if you look closely). We told her to keep looking at it...while we laughed...for a long time :)

Already Best Friends

Jade has fully embraced her role as big sister (which has been a big relief for Devin and I)




Zoe's Photo Shoot

Devin and I decided to have a photo shoot for Zoe. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Wallace for your patience and creativity. ENJOY!













Grandma and Grandpa Wallace

Grandma and Grandpa Wallace came out to visit (and meet baby Zoe). It was WONDERFUL having them here. They took Devin to the Detroit Auto Show, took Jade swimming, prepared meals, and pampered Erin (Audrey gave me a sweet pedicure...jealous?). It was SO fun! Thank you so much for visiting Grandma and Grandpa Wallace. We love you!




Footprint Obsession

Ok, I admit it. I am obsessed with baby foot and hand prints. I don't even want to admit how many footprint and hand print impressions I have taken of Jade (I even bronzed her prints...can't seem to find someone around here that will do it for Zoe). So here we are...trying to get more footprints for a Family Home Evening activity.



Being the helpful big sister she is, Jade decided to share soothers and toys with Zoe.

We just wanted to make sure Zoe could still breathe under all the toys!


Not sure what's going on here.

Zoe's first car ride with dad (Devin took Zoe to Costco within minutes of getting home from the hospital). Mom napped :)





Jade spent nearly two weekends with the Tennants (we had a few false alarms before Zoe actually came). Thank you so much Grant and Cami! We can't wait to spoil your little girl in March :)


Jade's first night at home with Zoe

She loves holding Zoe. Whenever you try to support Zoe's neck, Jade says "PLEASE DON'T!!"
