Sophia, Sophia, My Sweet Baby Sophia

So it's now been 2 weeks since my sweet baby Sophia joined our family - it's a strange feeling. On the one hand, I feel like she's been with us forever and can barely remember not having her with us, and on the other I am so amazed to have this little person in our lives! But even more amazing is how naturally being a mother has been for me. It's just so easy to love her and take care of her, and I'm still waiting for that feeling of being completely overwhelmed to come and get me. Hopefully it won't, but before it seemed like such a daunting task and now it just seems so effortless. Could also be the hormones balancing out. :)

The only sad thing so far was that Jon had to go back to work today. It's been so fun having the three of us together every day and seeing Jon interact with Sophia, and I've loved every second of it. But now he's back to work to earn our food and I need to get my butt moving on my homework so I can finish my class and hopefully start working from home. With Sophia being so darned cute and with Christmas right around the corner it's been hard getting back into school mode, but the thought of going back to Convergys and away from my baby will hopefully keep me motivated long enough to finish. :)

Anyway, here are some cute pictures I've taken of her, enjoy!

This is our first night back from the hospital - Jon's parents were nice enough to let us stay there for a few days to help with meals and stuff.

This is how big my feet got - it's about the biggest here that it ever was and this was about 5 days after I gave birth! See how it looks like I stuffed marshmallows under my skin? Ridiculous! (Don't worry, about 8 or 9 days after I woke up with them normal sized and they stayed that way!) :)

Sophia's cute Christmas pj's. (I bought these when I thought she would be born the week of Christmas - oh well!) :)

This is the cute bathrobe we got from one of my neighbors - it's a little big so we had to roll up the sleeves, but still so cute!

Her in her car seat with her adorable little shoes! (These shoes looked so tiny when I got them, and when they're on her feet they look huge!)

This was just cute. :)

Daddy and Sophie cuddling

The cute snow suit my mom got her (her feet don't quite reach the leg holes yet even though it's a 0-3 month, so she can't wear it out of the house because she doesn't fit in her car seat while wearing it, but oh well, it's still cute and I can't wait until it does fit!)

Unfortunately she's been cursed with my hair - my hair did this as a baby, where it would be curly right after getting it wet, and then dry very straight. Then it was straight until about 13 years old and that's when the fro took over. Poor girl, but at least she has a few years before it sticks like this! (Mom I put this one on here for you!) :)

And this is her crazy hair after it's had time to dry - sticks straight up everywhere!

Sophia's cute little toes. :)

Well that's all I have uploaded for now, I need to download the rest of the pictures I've taken since then. Plus, my friend Brittney Miller - the one who took my maternity pictures, came over last Monday when Sophia was one week old and did some newborn shots! I'm so excited to see them! There's a sneak peek of one of the pictures on her photography blog at http://stolenmomentsphotography-brittney.blogspot.com/ so if you want to see one cute baby, then she's there. :) I'll post the rest of them as soon as I get the disk. I can't wait to see how they turned out! :)
