Carissa has been growing and having another fun week! So much to do and explore! It was also Mommy's birthday on Wednesday and Mommy couldn't ask for a better present then her baby girl! It was the best birthday ever with her around! And Daddy treated Mommy extra special and made the day wonderful! Here are some pics of all the fun things we have been doing this week:)

We had fun visiting Babci & Dziedzie in Syracuse! Carissa is so good for the car ride and always falls asleep. Aunt Melissa came over to visit Carissa too:)

Our friends Matt & Jen and their son Mason came to visit! We had fun playing:)

We had some of our first real smiles at 5 weeks! Keep them coming Carissa, we love to see you smile:)

Mommy just thought this picture was too cute of Carissa stretching and relaxing. Her stretches and sneezes are just so adorable!

 

Had to share the cutest stretches ever on video. 

Carissa loves hanging out with her Daddy:)

We've been starting to enjoy bathtime! All nice and clean:)

We had a fun visit with Aria Lynn and her Mommy Andrea. Aria is just 10 days older than Carissa. We got some cute pics of them smiling:)

It was also so nice out on January 31st, almost 60 degrees!! Mommy and Carissa went for her 1st walk outside along the Pittsford Erie Canal. So nice!

It was Mommy's birthday on Wednesday and Carissa & Daddy made it the best birthday yet! We love our baby girl!

Daddy took Mommy out to dinner so Carissa got to hang out with GG (Great Grandma) and Auntie and Aunt Susan. They were so excited to get some alone time with her! Mommy and Daddy missed Carissa but weren't gone long.

 Mommy got bathing suit for Carissa from Auntie for her Bday:)

 And gifts from family in Ireland! A bathrobe with Carissa's name on it and adorable dress!

5 weeks old and having so much fun!

Carissa has been busy meeting lots of family this week! We went to Syracuse on Wednesday to Babci & Dziadzie's and also visited the Murray Cousins! So much fun meeting everyone! Everyone loves you Carissa! Such a little peanut but growing strong! (We also had a visit to the Dr and Carissa is up to 7lbs 9oz now:) Wish we had some more pictures of Carissa with Babci & Dziedzie we will have to work on getting some more good ones.

 Gracie was so cute with Carissa and loved holding her!

Maddie was so good with Carissa and rocked her to sleep. She is going to be a good babysitter:)

 Aunt Pauline and Uncle John were in town from Arizona and came to meet Carissa:)

We also had our 1st visit to Bristol Ski Mt. at Grandma & Grandpa Z's. We watched the skiiers out the window and Carissa had a great nap by the warm fireplace:)

We also went to Nan's or GG's (Great Grandma's) 89th birthday party. Where Carissa was the center of attention. Uncle Ron and Renee got to meet Carissa for the 1st time and we had a great birthday party for GG:)
