Kelsey continues to sleep most of the day and be up all night.

Here she is in her first Red Sox shirt.

Auntie Jamie saying good-bye to Kelsey as she heads back to school.

Kelsey is 3 weeks old today!
Here she is wide awake- it is 1am and she is ready to go.
Finally snoozing for a while in her swing.

And now fully asleep!

Kelsey keeps growing!

Aunt Jamie (Nick's sister) flew in on Weds. to see Kelsey- it looks like Kelsey is smiling up at her!
First photo in something pink! (though still mostly green)
Quinsi wanted to have a picture with Kelsey- he loves her- he cries whenever she cries and is being gentle with her so far.
Continuing to grow! This is from Saturday when she is 13 days old. She is much more alert now and is awake 2-3 hours at a time (and asleep for about the same).
Here Kelsey is at two weeks old!
She is a very happy baby! At the 2 week check-up Kelsey has gained almost a full pound from her birthweight (she's 8.11 now) and is doing well.

Kelsey's Visitors


Uncle Sam (Jess's brother) arrived in from Madrid to meet his new neice this weekend. Aunt Jane and Uncle Tim came by to meet Kelsey.

Quinsi is getting along well with Kelsey. He can't quite figure out what she is, or why she is here, but he likes to smell her and give her kisses.
Nana (Jess's grandmother) came over the weekend to hold Kelsey.
As did Aunt Anne, pictured below.

Nick, Jess and Kelsey at her one week birthday!

Visitors at the Hospital (posted a bit out of order)







Nick holding Kelsey right after she was born. Jess had a C-section so Nick had to wear hospital scrubs into the operating room.




Aunt Kristen (Jess's sister) holding Kelsey. She doesn't look too bad for being at the hospital from 4pm until 6am waiting for Miss Kelsey to be born!


Uncle Chris (Nick's brother) holding Kelsey.



Grandma Sharon (Jess's mom) with Kelsey.




Grandma Cathie (Nick's mom) holding Kelsey. Note the hat- we're not quite sure that Nick will be allowed to continue to pick out clothes for his daughter :)



"Bumpa" (Jess's dad) gets a turn to hold Kelsey.

August 1- Our first full day at home!


Kelsey has her first bath at home. It went well. She seemed to enjoy it much more than the one at the hospital earlier in the week.

She loves her hooded towel that looks like a frog.

All clean and ready to face the day!


Uncle Alex arrived from Florida last night to meet his niece! She'll be good practice for him- Kristen is due in October.

July 31- Coming Home From the Hospital

Some of the gifts we received at the hospital.



Kelsey getting comfortable as we wait to be discharged.
Nick holding Kelsey as Jess gets ready.


Today Jess and Kelsey came home from the hospital!

Kelsey was very good in her carseat. She didn't cry at all on the drive home.
