First Week

An attempt at a family picture Nana (or 'Nannie' as Andrew calls my mom) with her grandchildren Daddy and Andrew on one of their outings
'holding' Ava Ava's first bath
(Notice.. Andrew is holding a bug box in his left hand and there is a cricket still inside!
What a boy!!)

Happy now that the bath is over!

Well, we've been home for one week now and we're doing well. I was very lucky to have both my husband home from work and my mom here to help. Chaz is back to work today but he enjoyed his ten day paternity leave. He and Andrew had lots of father-son bonding time and went on several outings. My mom has really helped around the house and with the kids so that I could focus on Ava and take care of myself. Unfortunately, my mom leaves tomorrow and although we'd like her to stay longer, other reinforcements are on their way! My dad arrived this afternoon, my mother-in-law will be here this weekend and my sister and Aaron will be here Memorial Day weekend. Our military family and neighborhood friends have also been really sweet and have been making us meals.
