My sweet angel is one month old. When did that happen?! I feel like I was pregnant yesterday! Yet at the same time I don't remember what life was like before Emma Claire came along.
This past month has been so many things; exciting, scary, rewarding, stressful, exhausting, exhilarating, and extremely fulfilling.
Emma Claire has changed so much over the past month and I can't wait to watch her grow and change even more!
Your Daddy and I Love you SO MUCH little one. We don't know what we did without you!
I also want to say thank you for all of the advice on the gas issue. Last night from about 9pm until midnight she was extremely fussy so I gave her gripe water and gas drops. They didn't seem to help at first and I was so discouraged. I just kept laying her on her back and moving her legs and massaging her tummy until she was "relieved" :-) Finally she ate one last time and got sleepy. She fell asleep at about 12:30am and was up screaming an hour later. I knew she wasn't hungry and that it was gas so I didn't pick her up, I just put my hand on her tummy and started to move her legs up towards her chest. It only took five minutes and she was calm and asleep again. I repeated this one more time and then she fell asleep until 4:30 when she woke to eat. She only ate for 10 minutes and then was back asleep until 8:30. All in all I would say we had a pretty good night. I think she is worn out though because as I type she is asleep again! I'm fine with that though, we haven't had a morning nap in a LONG time!

It goes by so fast, doesn't it? She is so beautiful! I'm so happy to see another Momma who loves big bows like I do! :)
She is so beautiful! I'm glad she already likes Target... Smart girl.
What a cute pic of the two of you hovering over her with a kiss. :) She is one very blessed little girl.
Have you tried taking her legs and hinging her at the waist, like a reverse crunch? I get lots of good toots out of Avery that way!
The picture of you two with Emma Claire is so so precious! I love all of those big bows you have on her. :)
