Getting Bigger by the Day...

Annie Glenn is almost 3 months old and is getting bigger by the day. Last week we went to our two month check up and Miss Priss weighed 15 pounds....which by the way is off of the charts! She was 24 inches long and just absolutely perfect. Dr. Jackson was thrilled with her growth and could not believe how alert she was at such a young age!

We have had a few firsts since we last blogged which have included Annie Glenn's first birthday party for her friend Carter who turned one. Annie Glenn and Gordon both were invited and decided that parties for other babies were not their favorite. They cried and spent most of the party outside. Annie Glenn also tried her first bottle, which went great until she was supposed to take another bottle while we were visiting Elm Street. We have switched bottles and so far she is doing better, but we still have a long way to go. Annie Glenn also "walked" in her first 5K this past weekend and beat both of us by a stroller length! She was awesome the whole 3 miles. Her love of being outside is helping Josh and I to get into shape! And the best news of all is that Annie Glenn is laughing out loud and it is PRECIOUS! Josh was the first to get to hear her chuckle and since that first day she has been laughing more and more.

Annie Glenn still is the center of our world and is continuously bringing our sweet family so much joy. God's faithfulness and trust in Josh and I as parents is humbling as He has blessed us with the most perfect gift in Annie Glenn.

Love,
Carly, Josh, and Annie Glenn

The Easter Bunny...


Since when did the Easter Bunny become equal to Santa Claus? This is what Annie Glenn's Daddy wondered as we looked at all of her new treasures on Sunday morning. The Easter Bunny left our little bunny a basket and chair full of gifts, not to mention the outfits and gifts that Piggy and Aunt Ashley also gave sweet Annie Glenn. Our first Easter was just perfect!

We have had a wonderful week with Annie Glenn. She is smiling more than ever and is constantly "talking" to us. We can tell that laughing out loud is just around the corner. Annie Glenn will go back to visit Dr. Jackson on Monday for her 2 month check up, which will be two weeks late. I cannot wait to see how much she has grown.

Always,
Josh, Carly, and Annie Glenn

The Sweetest Girl!

All of this stuff is for ME???? Look at that smile!

Annie Glenn's past two weeks



Annie Glenn had had an exciting past two weeks. Last Friday we packed, packed, and packed the car and headed on our first long car ride to visit Annie Glenn's great-grandmother in Kentucky. We had a wonderful trip there and back with our sweet little girl. She slept most of the way and was an angel meeting all of her family members in Kentucky. When we arrived home we started to prepare for Josh's family to visit us this weekend for Annie Glenn's christening. Josh and I were a little worried as the pollen has made Annie Glenn congested, but she was as sweet as could be as we stood in front of the church today. Josh and I were so honored to have all of our family members with us as we presented Annie Glenn to the church.

We continue to be blessed with our chunky bundle of joy....who is now 13 pounds and 13 ounces and is over 24 inches long. We cannot imagine what life would be like with out her here with us and are continuously amazed at God's perfect gift to us. We hope that you enjoy the pictures below!

Love, Josh, Carly, and Annie Glenn

Miss Priss is 6 weeks old!


Today Annie Glenn turned 6 weeks old! Josh and I cannot believe how quickly six weeks can fly by and how much one little angel can change your life. Annie Glenn is now 23 inches long and weighs a whopping 13lbs! She is cooing constantly and is no longer content laying down. This little lady wants to be up and moving! She loves being outside and has even gotten to ride in her big girl umbrella stroller and LOVES it. We have been blessed with another week of good sleeping and now are just working on moving her bedtime to before midnight. She is just precious and we are totally in love.

Love to you all,
Carly, Josh, and Annie Glenn

Another week... another boyfriend is born!

    

This week we were once again blessed by the birth of Harris, another friend for Annie Glenn.  We traveled to the hospital to meet Harris's family and were shocked at how big our sweet little girl looked compared to Harris!  She doesn't look like a tiny baby any more!  Harris and Gordon have some catching up to do in order to be as "sturdy" as Miss Annie Glenn.  Josh and I feel so blessed to have such close friends to share our newest joys with....God has richly blessed all of us with healthy and beautiful children.  

Our week with Annie Glenn was another wonderful one. The weather this week was prefect for walks and our little family enjoyed walking just about everyday.   Annie Glenn  is continuing to grow and at our last check weighs 12 pounds 2 ounces!  She is absolutely precious and is getting so chubby!  It seems like each day she is "talking" more to us and is more and more alert.  She is now sleeping in her room, instead of in the bassinet by our bed.  I think this was a bigger transition for her Mommy than for Annie Glenn! She still seems to love her room and her favorite "toy" is looking at the light coming through the blinds by her changing table, although Annie Glenn would rather be outside than anywhere!  Josh and I hope that her wants stay this simple for the rest of her life!  

We will have another quiet week at home this week with our Sugar Lump.  I am glad that I finally have two friends and little boys to visit this week.  I have stayed at home about as much as I can...and I am excited to be able to visit with Harris and Gordon's mommies and for Annie Glenn and the boys to  have their first "play date"! 

Have a wonderful week!
Love, 
Carly, Josh, and Annie Glenn

One month old!

Josh and I cannot believe how quickly the past month has passed! Annie Glenn continues to grow and seems to be more beautiful each day. She is very alert, holding up her head, and cooing constantly. She loves to lay in her bed and look at her mobile and is still sleeping 4-6 hours at night. At last weight check she was over 11 1/2 pounds....she is getting rolls everywhere! Josh and I are truly blessed with an angel and cannot believe that she is ours!

The highlight of our week was two surprise visits from our "beach friends" as they passed though Newnan. These visits were so much fun as our visits are limited and usually only happen in July when we are all together in Florida. Annie Glenn will be one of the gang this Summer and we cannot wait! Also, this weekend Annie Glenn's newest friend Gordon was born. Annie Glenn picked out a pretty dress and we headed to the hospital to meet him.



It has been an incredible month full of blessings. Josh and I are blessed with a healthy baby that absolutely brings a joy to our life that we have never experienced before. We cannot wait for the rest of our lives with her!



We love you all,
Josh, Carly, and Annie Glenn

Annie Glenn's 1st SNOW!


We can't believe that the weatherman was right....Yesterday it was 65 degrees and today we have at least three inches of snow on the ground!
Everything in Newnan is beautiful and we have enjoyed taking a bundled up Annie Glenn outside for some quick pictures.

Let it snow!
