The fussiness gets to be a little more tolerable everyday; you start to form something resembling a schedule; the midnight wake-up calls become routine; the breastfeeding becomes less painful (and you learn to "hook" the baby up and walk around the house---so convenient! lol). By week five, you start to say, "Hey, I think I might be able to do this whole parenting thing!" And I hear it gets even better around week twelve---woohoo! ;)
As you can tell, things are going pretty well in our little household. We've still got some kinks to work out, but we're taking it day by day and learning as we go! I still feel so blessed to be able to call myself this little angel's Mommy---gah! I can't wait to see what the next few months hold as we watch her grow and as we, ourselves, grow as parents.
As always, here are a few pics of Miss Reagan:
**This is one of the best shots I could get of her in her "one month" onesie...she was more interested in what was going on outside the window than the camera, lol.
**I call this look the "pirate baby" smile. Melts my heart! :)
**Looking all prim and proper in her ballerina onesie.
**Love that sweet face!
**All decked out and cheering for our Florida Gators on Saturday!
**Reagan and I in our Gator garb...
**This is her "Please, Mum...may I have some more??" face. Just presh.
**She reminds me of the pig off that Geico commercial when she does this with her hands ("Wee, wee, weeeeeee!"). And yes, she was dead asleep like this, lol.
I swear, I fall more and more in love with her every day (if that's even possible)! She definitely has her Daddy and I wrapped around her long little finger already...we're in so much trouble when she's old enough to start asking us for stuff! LOL
Time to go do those pesky chores that have been piling up again...blah. But today is also the day I'm allowing myself to decorate for fall (my favorite time of year!), so I'm super excited about that! Yes, I know it's "technically" a little early for fall decor, but at least I made myself wait till after Labor Day! ;)
Till next week, here's my Verse of the Day, which is all about praising our almighty God! "Happy are the people whose God is the Lord!" (Psalm 144:15)
Side Note: I totally forgot to update you on Peanut's one month appointment last week! Oopsie! She weighed in at 8 pounds, 9 ounces and measured 21 inches long...a total gain of 2 pounds, 4 ounces and 2 whole inches since we were discharged from the hospital! Yaaaaay! I guess Mommy's milk does a body good, eh? ;) The doctor was very pleased with her growth and developmental milestones (she's starting to track our faces and can hold her head up VERY well!). What a blessing for such a good report! Now we're good to go till that dreaded two month appointment when she'll receive her first round of vaccinations...ugh. Thank God I have a whole month to prepare myself! lol
She is such a cutie!
