Recent Photos

Enjoy some recent photos of Marbella and Milana. In the first album you'll see Marbella enjoying herself at the Library. They have a pretty interactive area for kids.






Below are some pictures from today, July 22nd. As you can see, Milana is growing fast, but still sleeps most of the day and thus rarely has her eyes open. Enjoy!

Marbella and Milana - July 10, 2008

Milana's First Trip to Chuck E. Cheese's

When you have an active toddler it's not too easy to keep the new baby wrapped up at home. Now that there is vacancy at the house, Daddy took some much needed time off. On Thursday we went to Chuck E. Cheese's. Marbella had fun, as always. Milana just snoozed the trip away.
I'm not sure Marbella had even left the house other than to attend a doctor visit in the first few months of life. With Milana it is a different story.


July 1 - 7, 2008

Enjoy various photos from the first week in July with the McGee family and Gamma.

Milana's Doctor Visits

 Milana had her first doctor visit with Dr. Burgess on June 26th. On that appointment, only 6 days after she was born she weighed 5lb 9oz. On July 8th, Daddy took Milana back to see Dr. Burgess for her 2 week checkup and boy had she grown. Milana now weighs 7lb 6oz. She's really starting to fill out as you can see in the photos.

The McGee family has arrived

Kirstin and the kids, Sam, Sarah, and Emily arrived Sunday night. The kids are a big help and distraction for Marbella as Mommy continues her recorvery and get's well needed bonding time with Milana. Gamma arrives on Wednesday. Here are a few pictures of the McGee arrival.

A few photos with Grammy Green before she left. Grammy was such a big help. After Grammy left, Marbella decided it was time to put on her hat and Dora Crocs and then grab her puppy purse and a Medela breast pump bottle (hey why not?) and strut her stuff around the house.

Milana Hope Green - June 24th Photos

Mommy and Milana were discharged from the hospital at noon on Tuesday, June 24th. When we got home, Marbella was anxious to get her baby sister out of the car seat and show her the house and Milana's bedroom. Marbella was such a great girl in the car sitting next to Milana. Marbella is really loving being a big sis. She gives Milana hugs and kisses as much as she can. Karin is recovering nicely, not long after getting released from the hospital she was up and out with Daddy taking Marbella to get a haircut. Enjoy the pictures.

A true gift...

I snapped this photo today and couldn't resist sharing it with everyone. It was just too precious of a moment not too pass along. In the picture, Milana has hold of the pregnancy gift I gave Karin. It's called a Birthstone Bar and is made by Mindy Searcey. Mindy hand stamps each letter of each word in the metal. Karin's bar is inscribed with Marbella, 9-28-06, Milana, 6-20-08 and contains a sapphire and pearl birthstone.

What a difference a day makes

 


Today was a great day for Mommy. This afternoon she was finally allowed to eat solid food, get rid of the catheter and IV, plus get out of bed and take a shower. As you can see, she looks amazing holding her new little angel.
