Aliya's fist days home

It's been quite a week. We've been adjusting to life as a new family and are having a great time with our new baby girl. We are loving every minute of being parents and enjoy watching Aliya do new things every day. She is a very good eater and sleeper and had a great 1 week check up at the dr. That sure made our day. Here are some pictures from her first days at home.

We hope to have good news to share soon!
