We made it two weeks!



Vaughan turned two weeks, well a few days ago. While she has been accomplishing all her goals this week (ie, sleeping,eating, going potty, and looking cute) I have been less on the ball and running a little behind schedule on things like this blog, thank yous, checking phone messages, work questions etc. Thank goodness Vaughan's Grandma, Auntie Windsor, and Aunt Chatham were here to help hold down the fort.

Here's a little recap of Vaughan's second week of life:

Day 9



Vaughan gets up nice and early to leave the house by 6:30 am for her doctor appointment  & Dad takes control since we got no sleep the night before.



Vaughan shows off her long cord and snazzy monitor hook ups from the Cardiologist appointment.



Grandma Lovette gives Vaughan a bath before bed

Day 10


Vaughan shows off her blue eyes like Grandma Lovette


Meanwhile I get to play plumber since I was determined the dishwasher had to be installed today vs. tomorrow


Vaughan adds to the balancing act

Day 11

Vaughan wears her appreciation for Auntie Winds


and does what she does best... looking cute


Even while practicing tummy time

Day 12



Aunt Chatham arrives to wake up Vaughan from a good night's sleep


Dad gets in a little bonding time with his little girl


Since my sisters were all here and my mom, We decided to get a little impromptu photo shoot going...and going...

the girls


the new family


and a solo shot



Day 13

The day the water in the back house went a spewing..... and the margritas started flowing while we spent hours trying to soak up the water and dry the seagrass with fans and hairdryers.


and...The Luysters meet Vaughan

Day 14


Vaughan gets bathed by her 2 aunts...


And feels refreshed.

Day 15
Happy 2 weeks Vaughan!



Vaughan snuggles with Aunt Chatham on her last day



And shows off her pouty lips with Windsor

Vaughan, I am amazed you made it a whole 2 weeks with everything you experienced in the second week. Not only did you survive your mom being shocked and sending sparks flying by the electrical wiring of the old  dishwasher, you also survived a flood in the back house and slept so wonderfully while we ran hairdryers, fans and wet vacs in an attempt to get the water under control. You have been such a patient baby with the house issues and had so much fun visiting your Aunt Chatham and Grandma Lovette that we hope they come back to visit soon despite the home emergencies and 100 degree weather.
