Our First Family Outing

At just a week and a half old, we drove Sephira up the McKenzie Highway to Belknap Hot Springs to enjoy a lovely picnic in the gardens with Grandpa and Grandma Siverts...






...Sephira would have to say that not every rose smells so sweet!



Then up the highway a bit further to Sahalie Falls for a short hike along the river...



Dirk and Grandpa Eric carried Sephira in her stroller up and down the stairs...fortunately she's still "light"!



Sephira slept like an angel both legs of the trip! She loves her car seat, and fortunately doesn't even have to be in the car to fall asleep in it!!! She's so awesome.

Hangin' With the Family

Nana Kiss and Grandpa Cliff stopped by for a visit...




Sephira learning to whistle?! Or has she perfected "Blue Steel"!?



Sephira's 1 Week Checkup

Dr. Hokari wanted Sephira to be close to her birth weight by her appointment this week, putting on about an ounce a day. Amazingly, Sephira averaged an ounce and a half every day and exceeded her birth weight by an ounce, weighing in at 8 pounds 7 ounces! Yeah! No supplements for her!

From Colorado With Love

Sephira's Grandparents (Eric and Gerri Siverts) came from Colorado to visit us and love on Sephira for a week. We had a lovely time resting and taking it easy, and also enjoying our first outings as a family.
