Grandma & Grandpa

Nathan's parents moved to Williamsburg in late October, just in time for the beautiful Virginia fall and Evelyn's arrival! They were able to visit us in the hospital the first day; Evie was very please to meet her grandparents so soon and is glad they don't live 4,000 miles away any more!
(Be sure to notice Evelyn's awesome elf hat - it's her Daddy's favorite)

While Nana was in town Jeni and Evie hostessed a Grandmother's tea for both Grandmas.



Thanks for stopping by to see us!

"Baby Heavy"

We've enjoyed introducing Evelyn to many of our friends in the last week and a half. Our good friends, Steve, Liz and Sam were even here all the way from Roanoke! Sam was very welcoming to Evelyn. He even brought trucks to show her! He did have a little bit of trouble with saying her name, however. ;)

Family Visits

Nana came to visit the week after Evelyn was born. She was an amazing help to us, especially as Nathan went back to work on Tuesday. At the end of the week, Grandpa, Aunt Emily and Aunt Caroline came down for a quick visit as well, which coincided with Evie's first walk in Colonial Williamsburg.

(notice Evie is enjoying her first game of Ticket to Ride)

Coming home!

We finally got checked out of the hospital around 2 on Saturday. It was so fun and exciting bringing little Evelyn home! Saturday was a gorgeous fall day and it felt great to leave the hospital and enjoy the fall weather.
Here are a few final pictures of Evelyn in the hospital and us packing up.

Packing up and heading home!




And here are a few pictures of Evelyn hanging out at home with us...





Here's Evelyn in her first dress and tights. I was too tired at this point to stand up and get a really good pic, but I had to at least get one... :)

Waking up

Evelyn Ruth

Evelyn Ruth Mortier was born on November 11, 2010, at 6:48 AM. She weighed 6 lbs, 12 oz, and was 19 inches long. Her Mom and Dad are overjoyed that she has arrived and are having fun getting to know her. Below are a few of many pictures ;-)
