      Loving my baby girl! I have found that nothing is more important right now than to love her and spend as much time with her as we can. We both work full time and we spend most if not all of our free time just the 3 of us! We also spend time with family - Rhiannon's aunts, uncles, cousins, g-ma & g-pa!!

      Glad Rhiannon is feeling better! Can't wait to see you too. Right now, weekdays are best for us and is nice b/c Aaron is at work and company is always welcome. Weekends right now are a bit hectic being that it's the only time Aaron, Zach and I have as a family. Let me know if a weekday would work (if you can take off work) if not, i understand. Hugs!
