Checking things out

This is our favorite time ... Perrie is checking out her new little world with wide blue eyes. Most of the time she is sleeping - resting up for all of her visitors. We have appreciated having my parents here this week. Brandon's parents arrive tomorrow. Then we'll have Kelly, Liza, and my parents back for Christmas. Thanks everyone!

Week of Firsts

Well, it's needless to say that our week has been full of "firsts". I managed to catch one with the priceless picture of Brandon and Chelsea checking out the first dirty diaper - Brandon looks skeptical. There have been plenty since then!

Who does Perrie look like? I can't decide - her hair is dark in back and light in front, her eyes are greyish blue.

Perrie Grace Ausk

I think that the message has disseminated by now ... but we are happy to announce the arrival of our beautiful little bundle of joy!

Perrie Grace Ausk was born on 12/9/08 at 4:04 am. She was 7 lbs. 5.5 oz and 21 inches long.

We all came home yesterday are doing OK thus far -- sleep deprived, but doing OK.

We'll try to keep adding pictures to keep you updated!
