Yesterday I met lots of people in my extended family at my mommy's cousin Griffin's birthday party. Unfortunately mommy didn't get very many pictures. My favorite part was being cuddled by Nanny and my Great Aunt Judi all night.

During the day i got my newborn pictures by Sharon Johnson. Mom snagged one of the poses with her IPhone.

After that i just hung out with Dad while mom went shopping for some new clothes. I slept the whole time!

Today I decided to be a perfect angel! I slept from 11pm - 5:30 am...ate some food...went back to sleep...woke up again at 9 am. I went with mom to Brigham City where she got her nails done by Tiffany. I sat there and slept the whole time. I slept all the way home. When I got home I got some newborn pics of just me taken by a lady in our ward. Auntie Alyson came along to help my mom out! After that Emily (auntie aly's sister) and her fiance Cory came over and babysat for two hours so mom and dad could go on a date. I slept the whole time for them too. It seems as if I just like to keep everyone on their toes and following whatever mood I choose to be in for the day. Tomorrow Sharon Johnson (the lady who photographed my birth story) is coming to make pictures of our whole family! Mommy is really hoping i choose to be an angel for that.

Today i was a bit of stinker. Luckily for mom I slept through the night really well so she had enough energy to deal with it...but most of the day i cried. Mom was worried people were going to think she was kidnapping when she took me on a walk and i screamed pretty close to the whole way. When dad got home...i decided to be an angel. I fell asleep in his arms. I slept while mom watched a show, woke up ready to eat. After eating i went to bed and slept for 6 hours straight! Mom was very appreciative.

Today was a much better day. I slept wonderfully the night before and nursed on schedule and because of it my parents were much much happier and more energetic when they woke up. I took a lot of naps today. I did have to go to the doctor to retake my hearing test because i didn't pass it in the hospital and this time.....I PASSED! Mom and I came home and hung out till we had to go pick daddy up from work. Then we just hung out just us three. We watched some t.v. and ate some dinner.

Mom also took some pics of me on the couch for my blessing invitation (made by my great aunt Judi)

Here was the finished product:

Today was mommy's first day all alone with me. nanny went home yesterday and dad started work today. I did not sleep very well the night before so mommy was very tired. I also did not eat very well today either. for some reason i am not a huge fan of nursing. Auntie Aly came over and held me and gave mom a little break...i think mom was very grateful for that. Alyson got me to sleep and mom put me down in my crib around 2:30 and i slept until around 4:45. Dad got home and he held me for a bit. Then mom and dad had some friends named Brian and Heidi over and they held me for a bit. I just hung out with dad until bedtime around 9:30

I slept very well for mommy and daddy last night. they were very happy!! today i went to my first dr appt. I weigh 7 pounds exactly so i lost a couple ounces but the doctor said we didn't need to worry about it. i also got to go to campus and eat cinnamon bread with mom and dad...well at least i got to watch them eat it. Today i am being a little bit of a diva. I don't like to eat very much. I got to meet Tiffany and Brandon, Scott and Ashley, and Emily and Alyson. I am named after Alyson and i was happy to meet her. I spent the rest of the night cuddled up with daddy.
