Officially named
We had a WONDERFUL weekend here in Madison, surrounded by friends and family for Charlotte's naming. I'll try to put together something more comprehensive later, but here's one of my favorites pictures - Charlotte and the ladies that love her :o)

Cousins
It's been a big week at the Provan house. Monday we picked up Rachel and Eva at the airport, and we've been having fun ever since!
Especially fun activities:
Our daily (or at least it feels like daily) trip to target - look closely, there are two babies in that cart!
Watching Eva fall desperately in love with Max. Max has been a great sport about being the object of an 8 month old's affection, likely because he learned quickly that she's really good at dropping food :o)

Temp. Calm
After a wonderful visit Jean headed out today, along with Caroline and Carol. This means that for the first time in a long time it's just the four of us in the house. The males and the females in the house are making different use of the quiet time :o)

Big girl
We're on a quest to plump up miss Charlotte a bit (she wasn't quite over her birth weight at her 2 week checkup). While she seems very happy to nurse what feels like every 5 minutes, she's also very busy doing things like having her umbilical cord fall off (which happened on day 16). This is especially exciting because it means we can now have fun dressing her in onesies, instead of just t-shirts:
Let the games of dress up begin!

12 days later...
If you had told me 13 days ago how much our whole world would change there's no way I would/could have believed you. But here we are, 12 days after the birth of the most amazing little girl.
The birth was slightly more exciting then we would have liked but about 12 hours after being admitted we were on our way to the postpartum floor. We luckily had TONs of support including a whirlwind visit from my dad:

Thankfully my mom had flown out on my actual due date to get the lay of the land and jumped at the opportunity to help at the hospital:
And with tummy time at home:
Caroline and Jean also made an appearance:
From where I stand as a very sleep deprived first time mom, it's clear that baby Charlotte is lucky to have so much family that loves her, and that's willing to put up with her crazy mother :o)
