TWO WEEKS OLD!

What!!!???? How can it be?! Two weeks old?! Ahhh! We love him so much!

My mother in law Jennie is on her way over to help me so I can finally unpack from last week so here are some of the things that have been happening around here since we've been home and maybe a few from when we were still in Georgia....

Here is our home for the first week of Evan's life. Room 411 was spacious and good to us. No one complained about the all night crying or evidence of hair being pulled out. lol. Since he was still in the hospital for his first 4 days, I was able to blog at night. Now... not so much. ;)

Once Evan came "Home" we took some family portraits on the bed.

When we returned to Tennessee, I couldn't get out of the car fast enough to enjoy our Welcome home sign! Thank you Katie and Lindsey! It was the best. I was wishing there would be an 'It's a Boy" cheezy sign in our yard by some miracle and to our surprise... there were signs inside (Marrion is THE BEST!) and out, plus some 'elves' had come to drop off some much needed gifts and supplies. That changing pad is my best friend, I'm sorry but it is. The sign in the bedroom is from the Primary Children and adults at my church. I was sooo touched by that, a true surprise and I will cherish it always. On the subject of true surprises, "Aunt" Loretta send us some 'spooky' flowers! It was so nice to come home to a clean house (again, Marrion is awesome) and fresh flowers. Thankfully our pets were still very much alive. ;)

(See the spooky spider in the arrangement?)

Wondering if our pets missed us? They were very curious about their new noise maker...

On to some of Evan's FIRST Visitors!

(Sorry Lowery's I forgot to take on of you. frown.)

Grandma Jennie, Grandpa George... Amber and Henry

Aunt Nanci, Uncle Matt, Cousins Brooke & Lauren... Our Friend Liz

Todd, Denise and Taylor

"I like my real home mom and dad."

Ok, as you can see, Grandma Jennie is here and taking care of Evan. We can all thank her for letting me get a lot done in the bedroom, including finally being able to unpack my suitcase! Also, I was able to start this post because of her. Thank you Jennie. We had a great day. We hope you like the pictures below that we took after you left...

Sweetly peaceful, had to get a shot. Then... his other personality, 10min later... ;). Look at him wiggling out of the feet and trying to pry that thing off himself. :D lol. Try as he might to discourage us, we still love him. xoxo....................

We have been enjoying her son. I haven't had time to do anything while Michael is a work so we appreciate the love and help from our friends. Liz, you have been so great and I have a feeling, you'll be over again when I have something else to put together or need some dinner. lol. Lauren, thank you for introducing me to a great delicious sandwich from Ruby Tuesday (Turkey burger, YUMMY!). Shannon, the pictures are amazing and we can't wait to get them printed! Thanks Gildays for letting Evan and I invite ourselves over for his first Monday Night Football Experience! He's hooked and will be back. GO TITANS!

Bye for now folks, we are having a wonderful journey and can't wait to see what is next.
