Dear Baby Girl Wahl,
We are all eagerly awaiting your arrival. We know you are finished cooking, so just start moving would you? We are all so curious to see what you look like and find out your name. Most importantly, we all love you so much already!
Hugs and kisses,
Uncle Greg, Aunt Becky and Isla P.

Pics for Aunt Tina and Greg & Isla Pictures

Aunt Tina says that Isla is my real life Cabbage Patch Doll. Well, maybe just a little bit, but I don't remember my CPD projectile vomiting on me? So here is Isla in her ruffle outfit and her pink barrette...doesn't get much more girly or doll-like than this! (link for more below)

We were all hanging out in bed on Sunday. Isla was looking at and following Greg. She kept reaching out and touching his beard, too cute!

Week 5.

For more Week 5 pics click here.

We had a pretty good week.

What we were told was Colic, we now think is Reflux. Thank you Jesus! Isla is on medication that is helping tremendously.

Yesterday we got a package of book in the mail from the Pheney family, thank you again! We have already read several of them.

Photo comparison weeks 1- 4

Not too much has changed. Big alert eyes, crazy rocker chick hair, sweet little nose and pouty lip. The main difference is her cheeks are getting full and chubby...we love it!

Week 4!

Everyone told us time would fly by and they were right! We can not believe little Isla P. is already a month old!

Thank you Falb's for the adorable "Isla P" blanket, it is so sweet, and it was delivered today, her one month Birthday!

Here is our 4 week update:

Isla now weighs a healthy 9lbs 5 oz. We visited the Dr. on Tuesday and found out that Isla has textbook Colic. Overnight she went from our agreeable, sweet girl to a screaming, inconsolable cute baby girl. This week has been trying to say the least, but we are thankful that she is healthy otherwise and are just praying that this passes sooner than later. The other update is that I, Becky have a stress fracture on my left foot and am wearing one of those huge Frankenstien boots! When the Doctor told me I had to stay off of my foot for 6 weeks, keep my foot elevated and iced I wasn't sure if I should cry or laugh. Big sigh. I'm doing the best I can, considering. It is not painful, in fact I can tell it is healing, the boot is just annoying and I still feel captive in this house. I thought I would be back at the gym, walking in the park and getting around just fine by now. Frustrating, but I can deal with it!

Thank you everyone for the sweet emails, texts, cards and gifts, we have had so much fun hearing from everyone. We will keep the pictures coming and hopefully I can get my guest blogger to make another entry or two.

How amazing is my sister?

Really amazing!
We are so proud of Tina!

I mean, running with a smile!

At the finish line with Connie and Dale. Connie made the Tshirts to support the sister. Tina ran the race in Memory of Shirley Bernier (Tina's sister's(Sarah Broermann) husband's (Jeff Broermann) grandmother) - the picture Mom is holding up. The Foxes just love the Broermann's!
