Picture Perfect

Our dear friend, Heather Mildenstein, came over to visit Kelli and Felicity today, and we were lucky enough to have her take some more beautiful pictures for us. You may remember that Heather was the one who photographed Kelli while she was still pregnant with Felicity. We don't have a copy of the pictures yet, but you can see them on Heather's blog. We are lucky to have a friend with such talent!

Felicity decided to go with a bit of a punk-rocker face for Aunt Jeanne.

As mom was drying her off after a bath, we discovered a new hairdo possibility.

She was definitely enjoying the warm bath, wrapped in a comfort blanket.

Kelli decided to get Felicity dressed up in her pants from Grandma Julie and a sweater from Kathi Kohler for a little photo shoot on the couch.

Hooray! Felicity had a checkup on Friday, and she weighed in at 7 lbs. 14 oz. She is either raising her hands in celebration of the weight gain or signaling a touchdown. Probably the former, since I'm fairly certain our Titans didn't have any TDs today!

Roar! And this is what happened when I tried to remove her binky for a better picture. This look does, however, go very well with the teddy bear outfit that Grandma Cheryl got for her.

Here are a few more pictures of little Felicity. She continues to be an absolute joy. As far as I'm concerned, she could wear a brown paper bag and it would look like high fashion.

Mom caught us taking a little snoozer in that last picture. Just before we took that nap, she said her first word. It was "Dada." Too bad no one was there to hear it except for us.

Felicity's cord fell off today. I guess she can go swimming now.

our little girl is growing up

Felicity had her checkup with the pediatrician today. She has grown a little bit both in length and weight (up one ounce). Apparently that is good, because most babies lose some weight after the birth. She is in around the 20th percentile for weight, and around the 60th percentile for length/height. Man, they just grow up so fast! :-) What's a guy to do?

Felicity Clause is ready for Christmas in her cute, little hat from grandma Julie.

P.S. Go Utes!

Best Friends

Two of Kelli's best friends were in town and came by to visit. Jana (top) came with her husband Wes (aka Linguini). Marissa brought along her 3-month old son, Logan. That's right, boys. You better act quickly. Logan may appear bashful, but he is on a mission.

The Greats

What?

Those peaceful, happy pictures are great; but you all know that this one tells the other side of the story.

Double your pleasure, double your fun

Both sets of grandparents welcomed their second grandchild into the world.

Aunties

What a looker! How about that last one where she is sticking the joint of her finger right in that dimpled chin.

Felicity Kaye Radmall

Weighing in at an astounding seven pounds and measuring a towering 18.5 inches, in this corner, Felicity...Kaye...Radmall! Felicity was born about 9:49 on December 19th at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center. She is beautiful, the best Christmas gift that anyone could ever ask for. We are so blessed.

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Heather Mildenstein took these wonderful pictures of Kelli at 37 weeks. The due date is getting closer. We are suspecting that she will go past her due date. Don't worry, because it will still be Christmas!
