The name and first days

A quick explanation of her name: "Kay" is my middle name, as well as the middle name of my Mom and my Aunt, and the name most people called my Grandma (my Dad's Mom) . "Leigh" is my sister's middle name. So we combined those two to create her first name. 

Kayleigh's middle name is "Renee," which is Joey's Mom's name . It is also the first name of one of my cousins, and is another cousin's middle name. 

This little girl has quite the family name! :)

Here are some pictures of Kayleigh's first few days of life in the hospital. I'm guessing from this point on most blog posts will be picture heavy!

My very last belly shot on our way to the hospital early Tuesday morning.

Ready to go!

Finally had our girl in our arms.

Our VERY alert baby just a few minutes after she was born!

Already so in love with her!

Precious.

Right after she ate.

Look at those sweet cheeks (she has pillows attached to her face!).

First time in her carseat getting ready to head home!

And we are out of there!

Our first car ride as a new family on the way home from the hospital.

She was pretty content in her carseat for the ride.

Many more pictures to come soon (We are so thankful that we recently purchased iphones and take about a million pictures a day with them)!
