I've been cherishing this relatively quiet time when I am blessed with the ability to focus on baby Aurelia Rose - thanks to the presence of my parents who have taken on the rest of my duties in these parts.
So, here are the baby and big kid moments from the last week captured through my and my dad's (much better) lenses.

Oh, how she loves her "Baby Rose."

Blaise developed the poncho baby holder to protect herself from the dreaded spit up.
