Baby's First Valentine's Day and Visit from Grandma and Grandpa Hekel

Grandma Hekel flew in late Tuesday night, and we have enjoyed having her here! She has been a huge help - waking up with me in the middle of the night to help with diapers and soothing. I am feeling more rested, even though I am still "like the dead" when I wake up from naps. We actually didn't make it to church today, after a long night and early morning and late night feedings...

Grandpa Hekel flew in very late Friday night (we went to bed around 1 am). The boys ran some errands on Saturday, but most of the day was spent "watching" Abigail. She is the object of our love and full attention! She is becoming more vocal everyday - more grunts, groans, and a bit more crying (and she eats great when she is wide awake!).

A friend from church (Marisol) and a friend of Rodney's coworker have given us bags of baby girl clothes, much to our delight. Grandma has enjoyed dressing our little girl in pink this week, so enjoy some Valentine's Day pictures (and a few that I've taken over the week).

Grandma and Grandpa go home on Tuesday, and then Grandma and Grandpa Harms come on Saturday. Our little girl is certainly well loved!

She's already changing since I saw her. Man, why do babies have to grow up so quickly?

Thanks so much for sharing! She is beautiful. I can't wait for her to come "visit" us all at Bethany!
