We weren't necessarily planning on taking a road trip with a 3 week old, but last Friday we had received a phone call with some sad news. Mia's Great Grandma Shields had passed away and we needed to drive to Boise. We just returned and although it was a sad time, it's always nice to see family and friends while back in Boise. So, we're sorry that we haven't updated the blog in a couple weeks!The Fog.
We're finally seeing some light peek through the fog we've been in. Just as many of you have said, by week 3 or 4, you'll finally start getting used to the schedule and coming to grips with the new lifestyle. After traveling, you would think that we're pros! We had bottles prepared for the road trip so we didn't have to stop so often and packed every possible item for the baby (of course, you couldn't see out of the back window while driving with the piles of junk). We're taking lots of photos for the announcements that we should be able to send out in the next month. Here's one that I was able to capture with her eyes opened for once! I've been telling people to wish us luck with her eye color. We're hoping for blue eyes and her pediatrician said she thinks they might be blue - shocker! We'll have to wait and see (of course, a lovely shade of brown would be beautiful, too). :)
