One Month

  Today Charlotte is 1 month! I cant believe it, it has both been the longest and shortest month of my life. I cant remember not having her here with us everyday but it also seems like just yesterday I was in the hospital moaning through contractions.

She was fairly cooperative during our photo shoot this morning :)

This month you.......

• are wearing size newborn diapers and clothes
• weigh almost 9 pounds
• love being worn by Mama and Daddy in your baby carriers
• sleep up to 7 hours at night
• like to be sung to and danced around 
• are starting to be able to hold up your head during tummy time

Weekend Recap

Our weekend was great. I always look forward to having Tony home more; he gets more time with Charlotte, I get more free time to get some things done and we get family time which is the best!

Charlotte hung out on her Boppy while I caught up on laundry

We spent some time practicing looking at things and stretching little legs

She had Sunday morning naps outside while we had a yummy brunch- bacon, eggs and toast

And there were lots of baby cuddles. Lots of baby cuddles.

Milk drunk baby :)

I was able to finish my wreath for the 4th of July that I started earlier in the week.

We did a little shopping as well. We got the cutest summer hat for Charlotte, I cant wait to show it off at the lake house in August with the family.

We also had awesome cinnamon rolls from the Farmers Market on Saturday morning, Skyped with Grandma, did some lawn work, grilled some hotdogs and had a family movie night.

We hope everyone else had a great weekend too!

Photo Dump

So maybe a picture a day is unrealistic to try and do with a new born :) I promise at least a once a week "photo dump" of pictures from throughout the week. Here is the latest....

Broke down and gave a paci after she used me as a human paci for 4 hours and sucked a bruise on her arm. She doesn't love it but it saved either of us from bodily harm do to sucking.

Nakey baby

Full and feeling sleepy

Sleepier...

and asleep :)

Sweet baby dreams

baby toes!

    Yesterday was a bit rough thanks to Little Miss having a stuffy nose so we didnt get a chance to grab a picture. But today we tried out a new wrap to wear her in and she loved it. She took a great nap in it and I was able to do this dishes, eat breakfast and a load of laundry.

We are going to the farmers market later and will try this out instead of navigating a stoller in the crowds.

Picture Catch Up

Monday

The morning after deciding it would be fun to be up from midnight to 3:30 in the morning. She doesn't even look remorseful......

Tuesday

Charlotte's first bath! She didnt love it but didnt hate it either :)
