It’s been a while

Sorry there haven’t been any updates, we’ve been busy. Here are some recent pictures of our little Reese, she’s  grown so much.

Play Dates

13 Oct

Nine days after our little Reese was born Monique and Tommy welcomed their first son, Tristan into the world. Naturally Monique and I got them together for a play date… we’ll use that term loosely ( they mostly just sleep). Here are some pictures of them from a couple of different days, I am sure that there will be more to come.

My Aunties

Since neither Eric nor myself has sisters my cousins have been designated to take on that role… and of course she has plenty of great aunties.

We took Reese to her first Parra Family gathering, she was a hit. Sharing her with our family has proven to be my favorite pass time,  we hope that she comes to know and love everyone.

Reese’s First Bath!

22 Sep

Reese had her first bath the other day. She loved it. She loved the water on her and washing her pretty hair. She smelled so precious and good after. We love her so much. Here she is…

First Milestone

3 Sep

Yesterday Reese’s umbilical cord fell off (I guess it does that) and today she took her first bath.  She was such a good girl and loved kicking around in the water and getting her hair wet. Here she is taking a nap after her bath.

We love just watching her sleep…which she does a lot. :)

A Sunday Kind of Love

2 Sep

It seems the good things in our lives happen on Sundays and this past Sunday was no different.

Reese Elena Sanabria was born August 24, 2008 at 12:33 am weighing 7 lbs. 8 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long. I’ve been overwhelmed by the blessing of her health and Alexis’s quiet strength and beauty through all of this. Mommy and Reese are doing well. Mommy is recuperating from surgery and Reese is eating and sleeping like a true Sanabria. We are very fortunate.

Reese is growing everyday. We’re surprised already at how much she’s changed. She’s the most beautiful thing we’ve ever seen and can’t wait to share her with our family and friends. Here are a few pictures of the experience (a long and tiring day) and Reese’s first week in this world. Hopefully they hold you over until you can see the real thing. She’s amazing.

A good start.

After 18 hours of labor we headed to surgery and I was a bit concerned.

She made it out!
