Week 2

Adelyn continues to amaze us and she is the highlight of our days (and nights)! Week 2 brought her first Thanksgiving and many special visitors including her other Great-Grandmother! She was two weeks on Tuesday and now weighs 8 pounds!

Week 2 in pictures...
Wearing her first flower:) Thanks Grandma for the pretty headbands and flowers!

Meeting great-grandma, Nay Nay!

"daddy's natural beauty" an adorable onesie from our dear friend Mark! We can't wait until she fits into the other adorable clothes he sent (including her first jean jacket and first pair of skinny jeans)!

I was attempting to get a picture of her long locks after her bath, hard to tell but they are there!

"lil miss november" outfit from one of the best dressers I know, my friend Meg! I definitely wish we lived closer because her daughter has some of the cutest clothes I've ever seen!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with TONS to be thankful for this year! Brandon did an amazing job on the turkey & gravy and thanks to our moms for bringing all the sides!

In her turkey bib from Aunt Bethie:)

Trying to get a family photo in without crying...good luck!

Thanks to Molls for recommending the Moby wrap! As you can tell Brandon and I both like to use it!!!

Adelyn's first Tech v. UVa game! Not the best outcome, we'll hope for some better ones in her future!

Mrs. Halpin

Auntie Lucy

and Ms. P!

And on Monday Nicole....

Mrs. Grant & Brady!

Another week has flown by:(

Welcome Adelyn Grace Crawford!

* Please note - I realize there are a million pictures...her parents are a little obsessed!

Adelyn Grace Crawford came into our lives on November 16, 2010 at 7:23 am. She was born 7 pounds 10 ounces and 21 inches long. She has grayish eyes and beautiful auburn hair like her daddy...I was SO excited! Adelyn is a name I've liked from the beginning and it slowly grew on Brandon but we think it fits her perfectly! Grace was Brandon's grandmother's middle name, a very special person in his life and we're proud to honor her.

Here is her first week in pictures:
