UPDATE

Hey family and friends---We are blessing Arlee on Sunday March 1st at 11:30 am. We are going to have dinner at our house after...(Stants are cooking Hawaiian food) YUM!!! We hope that everyone can come. Let us know if you can make it!
Time has flown by...Arlee is three weeks old. I took her to the Dr. and she weighed in at 8 lbs 10oz. (She was down to 7 lbs. 2 oz when we went to the Dr. two weeks prior) and I was worried that she wasn't getting anything to eat! According to her Dr. she is well on her way to be a fat healthy baby. She is growing so fast. She loves to eat, sleep and poop. That is pretty much my life right now. I told Flint that if I had a dollar for ever hour I have spent in the rocking chair, I could buy several boxes of diapers! I love having a little girl. Everyday I get her dressed and tell her..."All dressed up and no where to go" I can't wait until she is a little bit older so we are free from RSV and can do what we want, I still feel home bound!
Flint left for Vegas this morning to go to the WPPI (photography convention). WE usually go together every year, but we figured smokey casinos were not a good place for a 3 week old! So now I am home this week without Flint and have to figure out life without him around to help out. I am so spoiled to have him always here. We are going to miss him! Cooper came and got in my bed at 7 this morning and said "I miss dad, when is he going to be home?" Flint had only been gone 2 hours! Its gonna be a long couple of days!!!
Here are some pictures of Arlee when she was two weeks old.


She didnt care much for the huge flower that kept slipping down into her eyes!

Darling, Darling, Darling. I've been wondering when we were going to see more of that sweet little girlie.
I feel for you on the Flint being gone to Vegas thing. Chris leave to Vegas next first thing Monday morning (the 23rd) and won't be back till EARLY on Sunday. I really hate that :(
