One Month

Happy one month birthday Gracie & George.

I am going to copy a our birthday buddy's one month blog, because it was great. This is what we have learned over the past 30 days.
  • She is a cuddler and lover. No matter who it is, she loves to be held by everyone and gives so much love back.

  • Her wardrobe is filled with many pink and purple items. She looks adorable in the outfits and even went through three outfits in one day.

  • Grace takes after her planning parents and is pretty much a three hour girl. Ever three hours she is ready to eat with only a few nightly feeds that are four hours apart.

  • We are lucky that Grace doesn't cry much outside of the usual reasons. When she does cry Brandy is the first to let us know and check on her.

  • She continues to develop with tracking images and she loves the paintings on her wall. They are perfect to keep her entertained while changing her.

  • Like George she doesn't like being dressed, loves baths, hates leaving the baths, is losing her hair in the front, and loves spending time looking at daddy.

Here are a couple photos to compare her growth from the first few days of life. Her cheeks were so adorable and chubby when she was born. Those cheeks have slimmed down a little. These two animals are her lovies. The monkey was selected because that is daddy's pet name for his little girl. We bought the zebra at Frontier Ranch where we spent many of church retreats.

This past week was great. Adam did have his first night away from Grace...he will fill you in on that later. My mom came over for the night to help and spent some special time with our three generations. Today I visited a lactation consultant to help finalize a few things and I think we are going to have an even better week and I will hopefully get some more sleep as well. Enjoy the photos.
