Visitors and settling in...

It has been a great first week for us. Both my sisters came into town for vacation so we had a lot of commotion for most of the week. It's been an adjustment and I can't imagine what I'll do when Corey goes back to work. Joe sleeps pretty well-as well as a newborn can sleep. But I've been taking naps when Libby naps and that helps! We even managed to get ourselves up and ready for church-it was nice to wear something besides sweats!Our second family photo-we have cute kids despite Joe's face in this one!

We've had some other visitors as well. My grandma Ellie and Aunt Carole (and cousin Christina) came by to meet Joe. It was wonderful to see all of them and for Joe to be held by his great grandma. Libby also enjoyed the visit-she is such a ham in front of company.

Ashley Iliff brought by some awesome food (thank you Ash!) and got to meet our little man-which is great since the Iliffs are moving soon! Our friends the Burdettes dropped by as well and Eva wasn't too jealous of her mommy holding baby Joe. There has been a general outpouring of generosity from family, friends and neighbors (some great baked goods from 2 neighbors!). SO thanks to everyone!

I just love this picture of mom and Libby-she loves her Gamma!
