"Miracle" - Celine Dion
Good morning.
Piper and I are about to go upstairs and sneak in a few minutes with Daddy before he gets ready for work. It's been our ritual this week.
Piper is one healthy babe. Her weight checked out great at our doctor's visit yesterday. She gained 6 ounces and is 8lbs. 3+oz - 6 oz. away from her birth weight.
No more checkups until she's one month old.
My wonderful friend, Kelly, came over on Sunday afternoon and took some very special photos for us. We tore up the nursery. We laughed. We cried. We laughed some more.
Piper was a champ (and a doll) through all the wardrobe changes.
Her little personality shines through in every single photo. We are in love with her silly, little faces...her sad, pouty faces and her big, inquisitive eyes.
Thank you, Kelly. These photos mean so much to us.
Our little miracle at just six days old...
We adore you, Piper Grace.
hilarious! she takes after her mama in the funny face department.
love it!
LOL!!!
Have a beautiful day.
And a happy weekend.
I'll be back next week with Piper's birth story.
Lots of love to all. <3

Piper is oh so cute. I cannot be happier for the two of you!! She's a hilariously adorable crier like her mama and I just love the crochet minion photo :)
Can't wait to see more of her!
Oh MY!! These are just too much! I love Piper's "cranky" faces! And the one of her and Steve sitting in the chair in the Yankees outfits with her subtle little smile is just adorable!!! I can't believe these posts are here- I looked forward to these pictures of her for so long!! As I know you did too. :) So happy for you Maria!!!!

Oh my goodness, Maria, she is SO beautiful!!! That sweet little face! I just wanna squeeze her little cheeks and kiss her button nose :). Such a DOLL! She looks like her momma, too :). I loooove the ones of you holding her in the rocking chair- so special. And Steve holding her...he is completely smitten! What a proud daddy. So sweet! I love all of these so much...that last outfit Piper's wearing is precious. I love her! Bring her to Texas please :).
I love that you're soaking up each and every moment...and taking lots and lots of pictures of all the "firsts". Piper will thank you when she's older! She is one lucky (and gorgeous!) baby girl to have parents like you two.
She is beautiful! Congrats again! I know you are enjoying every second.
I adore her name!! How sweet is she?!? You look gorgeous and so happy! Soak it in, and smell her often. There is nothing in the world like that baby smell.
Have a wonderful weekend Maria!
these pictures are precious
She has quite the plethora of facial expressions! I love it! You are looking amazing, by the way! You have a glow about you that is just bursting with happiness, which is what you feel, I am sure! Can't wait to hear her birth story! :)
Have a great weekend!
Hi Maria! I just wanted to tell you I have followed your blog ever since I ran across it on the Bump, actually when you first started it. My heart is over flowing with joy for you and your sweet little family! I'm so glad you got your miracle! Sweet Piper is so beautiful! Congratulations!
You are such a beautiful, happy momma! Piper is adorable. I love all of her sweet faces, my favorite is the one with the little pouty lip, so precious! Kelly did so good with these pictures!
I am completely melting! She is SO beautiful!
And the faces!!! I absolutely love them. You look incredible mama!
sweet baby, she is beautiful and perfect :)
love the photos!
xo,
Liv
I LOVE ALL THE PICTURES!!!!! Keep them coming, keep them coming, keep them coming! I just can't seem to get enough of them. Gosh, I'd love to hold her and snuggle her. She's such a sweetheart. I got your voice note and LOVED it. She was NOT happy you were talking to me. She wanted all your attention. HA HA! I LOVE YOU, MAMA!!!!!!
Beautiful photos as always...minus the one with the Yanks and Tigers in the background with the Tigers losing LOL!
I get so excited every time I see a new post...I just love seeing your little family :) Can't wait to read the birth story!!
What a beautiful little family!!
She's beautiful. I love the one where the headband fell over her eyes and she's stretching trying to see. She's feisty! Love it! My Steve (hubby) is a huge Yankees fan too. I'm a Philly girl so I lean to the Phillies but I'll yield to him when we have kids for baseball....... Thanks for sharing your story. Your strength inspires me.
Congratulations Maria! She is beautiful!
OH my goodness Maria. I can't decide which I like best. I teared up with Piper and daddy in the NY'er wardrobe. It made me think of that daddy/daughter thing....brought memories of me and my daddy back. BUT I have to say...the crocheted dress is so adorable. Love it. You all are so blessed.
Irish
She is just beautiful!
Such wonderful photos. If you ever need someone to come and cuddle her I'm more than willing to make the drive :-)
You are RIGHT! She does have pouty faces!! Love it! For the record, I think she looks like Steve when she pouts. HAHA!
Kelly did take awesome photos too.
xoxo
I die at her beauty! Love her facial expressions. She is truly beautiful, like her Momma! I love each and every photo. She is precious beyond words. Love you Maria! So happy things are going so well! xoxo
OMG! What an adorable baby you guys have! Love all the faces she makes, hahaha! And I bet it's going to be tough to say no to such an adorable girl :D.
Have a wonderful week, Maria!
Oh that pout face is too much! I've never seen such an expressive newborn! Beautiful pictures that you will treasure!!! And you look great too! You don't even look tired:) xoxo
She is too darn cute!! I love all the expressions :) Absolutely adorable! You both look great, too. Not sleep-deprived at all! I want your secret... Love you all!! Xoxoxo!

I just love her! I still can't believe she's here. Love all those silly baby faces too :)
Awww Piper is like a little doll in some of those pics!! And that face, oh my gosh, when she screws her face up it breaks your heart doesn't it lol
She is so tiny, only because I am used to looking at bigger little people hehehe, they grow up too fast from that tiny little version of themselves. Great pics Kelly! Love the ones of the three of you especially!! xoxo
