Same blog, new look

I decided to mix it up and change the look of my blog. The old look was reminiscent of pregnancy and bedrest, which weren't bad things, but I am just ready to move forward and embrace my new life with Eleanor. Plus, I love change!

Today was a first for Eleanor. We went to Subway with the ladies! The whole gang was there...Mom, Kris, Nancy, Shelby, Courtney & Luke. We had a great time and the babies (Eleanor & Luke) finally got to meet. They were so cute and even exchanged a few smiles...future friends, I know it! As we were cleaning up, I looked at my watch and realized we had been there 3 hours! Who knew Subway could be so entertaining!

So Nancy (Courtney's Mom) has encouraged Courtney and I to write a book about pregnancy, fertility, motherhood & babies. It sounded crazy at first, but between Courtney and I, I think we have some good material. I am excited at the prospect and already have lots of ideas swirling around my brain.

Eleanor update...she is great! Not only am I her best friend, but I'm her bed as well! She has struggled with falling asleep on her own at night, so we simply let her sleep with us in bed (or rather ON Momma). I know, I know...I'm probably creating poor sleeping habits, but after hours of trying to get her down, I give in due to complete and utter exhaustion. We have purchased a new sleeper (which my friend Courtney calls, the "yellow taco"), and I am VERY optimistic for sleeping success.

Elizabeth update...work is going great and Eleanor takes the bottle perfectly for Daddy while I am gone. Even though I am only at work for 4 to 5 hours at a time, I miss little E terribly :( It is nice, however, to get out and socialize with other adults.

Here are some new pictures of Eleanor. Enjoy! More to come, I promise :)
