Life Lately

I know the posts have been few and far between lately - time seems to slip away these days.
However, I'm making a promise to post at least once a week from here on out.
Let's make up for the last month, shall we?


While we haven't done much in the past month, it has honestly been the best of my life. We have started running small errands, going to visit family, and we've had a few small gatherings of friends and family at our house. We still get visitors a couple times a week too. Overall, the month has been filled with a whole lot of love!
 
A few updates about our lovely:
 
she's started to smile (they're few and far between, but OH SO PRECIOUS!)
loves to cuddle and lay on mommy's chest
has quite the grip
loves holding on to our fingers
usually wakes up twice each night - once around midnight and once around 4am
wakes up for the day around 7-8 am
hates dirty diapers - and has lots of them!
is obsessed with her binky (we waited about a week to introduce it and she's been obsessed ever since!)
would gladly spend all day, everyday in the bath
loves being rocked
takes a long morning and afternoon nap
still wears newborn clothes
just started size 1 diapers, although they're still a little big
does really, really well in the car
loves bottles with daddy
can hold her head up for 10-15 seconds or so on her own
is super alert and listens to us talking to her
can really tell who mommy and daddy are
loves loves loves being swaddled!
has developed a little case of baby acne that drives her mama crazy!
eats every hour, on the hour from 5 - 8 or 9 pm
loves to go potty on daddy while he's changing her

Here are a bunch of random pictures over the past month.
