Kelsi had her first bath! She did not like it very much at all at first, but calmed down once the warm water ran over her head. We are having so much fun with her. Her jaundice has been up and down and the doctor sent us home with some lights to use with her. MUCH better than watching her under the lights in the hospital with those glasses over her eyes...it breaks my heart all over again to remember. Grandma Manderino leaves to go home tomorrow and we are very sad to see her leave. She has been so much help before Kelsi arrived, while we were in the hospital (I don't know what I would have done without here there since John had to work most of the time), and once we were able to take her home. I honestly don't know what I am going to do without her, but I guess I will figure things out. Grandma and Grandpa Calderwood also came down for a visit this week and it was so much fun to see them with their newest granddaughter!

So So sweet Karina. Ashlyn had a little Jaundice but it was August so I just took her out side with a diaper so she could get a little sun. My mom said she always did that. I am glad she is getting better.

She is so pretty! Isn't motherhood the absolute BEST? (Especially after surviving the first few weeks!):)

I love the bili-blanket. That was so much nicer than the huge UV bed. Yeah, those memories will stick with you forever, but they aren't as bad later on. She is a doll! Love you!
