For Elizabeth's baby book I have been writing down who has visited during her first weeks. Here I wanted to document it with pictures. Unfortunately we didn't get a picture of everyone, but I have documented them here as well. I have also put a few other events in case I don't get to them in another post. I fear if I don't write down all her firsts now, then I wont remember them.
