Life Without Nonna

Kate is 3 weeks old today, November 23 and I'm sure that many of you have noticed that we have not been making blog posts with the same frequency as the first couple of weeks. This is a result of our little family trying to settle into some resemblance of a routine on our own. We were lucky enough to have the full time help of Kate's Nonna (Abbie's Mom) the first 2 weeks of Kate's life. This allowed us extra time to do all sorts of things...sleep, work on blog posts, update Facebook, return phone calls and emails. The past week has left us without our dear Nonna. While we are trying to devise plans daily to coax Nonna back down to Louisiana to help out Mom and Dad again, we are just extremely thankful for the time that we had with her and for all of the help and guidance she provided in our first few days as new parents. Kate has been missing Nonna badly and can't wait for some more good quality time with Nonna and the rest of the Johnsons around Christmas.
