Well the first month of parenthood has been very very busy! the first couple of weeks were an adjustment but we have since settled in. Our house has been full of visitors, which is wonderful and we made our first trip to Oregon this last weekend. So heres some highlights of what we have been doing.
We took a trip to Bernett farms in Scappoose, OR to walk around and take some fall pictures of our little punkin!
She wasnt super pleased in this photo!
Looking cozy laying in all the pumpkins!
A couple little family photos.
And this was brad making fun of her. she wasnt happy that her hat fell down over her eyes!
Thank you to Grandma Lisa for buying her cute little pumpkin hat and pants. They were the perfect clothes for visiting the pumpkin patch for the first time! And a huge thanks to Auntie Ali for taking our pictures.
We have had visits from friends as well as family, Tom and Rikki stopped by to meet Adrienne and we got a photo of Uncle Tom and Adrienne. Apparently he doesnt hold babies very often so this may be a special photo :-)
Showing off his new glasses and Adriennes cute skirt on her one month birthday!!
So i bought this outfit as a very special going home from the hospital outfit and decided that i wanted to get some more use out of it. So she wore this to Oregon to visit the family and it is adorable! I am very happy that i got it!
Adrienne meeting Katelynn for the first time! Katelynn was very distracted by the TV and really confused with why 5 people started taking pictures of her!
In one month Adrienne has met all but two of her grandparents. she has 3 grandmas, 2 grandpas, 3 sets of great grandparents and a great grandpa on brads side. And 2 great great grandmas!! Its a big accomplishment that we have met all but two so far! Here is a 5 generation picture. Me, my mom teresa, Adrienne, Great Great Grandma June Rose, and Great Grandma Teddy.

And some cute moments that we have captured!
In one month we have accomplished a lot. Adrienne is a wonderful baby, she sleeps and eats as well as you could expect a baby to. We have progressed to sleeping in the crib and momma loves it!! i sleep so much better without her in our bedroom. Kaya is reluctantly adjusting to the baby. And Adrienne is growing fast, She has gained more than 2 pounds from her lowest weight, grown 1.5 inches in legth, and 2 inches in head circumfrence. She is much more awake now enjoys tummy time and looking at faces. she has started sleeping a little bit longer at night and we have started bottle feeding every now and then. We wanted to wait one month to introduce a bottle to make sure we had a good breastfeeding relationship. So on her one month birthday daddy gave her her first bottle of breastmilk and she did very well! I am thankful that she has done well transitioning between the bottle and breastfeeding because we need her to do both when i go back to work.
Until next time,
Shyla, Brad, and Adrienne
