One Month New




An impromptu photo shoot at home. Unplanned, no special outfit. Baby Everett simply kicking around on a blanket with big sister Delilah playing nearby. Just honest to goodness sweetness.

Bringing Home Everett

Homeward Bound // Released from the NICU // July 31, 2019



Bye, bye, NICU!


First time in the sunlight

Being a big sister is exhausting

Better look at Everett's going-home outfit

July 26


Happy Due Date, little buddy! I can’t believe it’s been 20 days since you arrived. What a whirlwind, roller coaster of a journey it’s been. You’re 40 weeks, weigh 7 lbs 3 oz, and are becoming more alert every day as you “wake up” to the world around you. You’re not a fan of diaper changes but enjoy keeping it interesting for mama by going multiple times mid-change (current record is four diapers at one changing!). You’re also not fond of that feeding tube taped to your face and you much prefer to have your hands free (swaddle breaker! NG puller!) but you rarely cry. You love to practice breastfeeding and are making slow-but-steady progress with the bottle. Everett, you are still just the sweetest and snuggliest baby boy, hopefully that won’t ever change. Goal for next week: coming home.
