5 Months

Today feels weird - there is no way that Miss Amelie is 5 months old.

No. Way.

She ate bananas tonight. Loved them!

She sat up by herself. Just once, but still.

I wish those teeth would push through already, they're still bothering her. 

She still wakes up once a night, but it's ok with me.

My very last baby.... and she's perfect.

She loves me, and I love her!

Just look at that face!

One Month

Dear Amelie - 

You are one month old now - how time flies!

I still can't believe that you're here.

My third child, my first girl.

My only baby to use a pacifier

and to have colic.

You sleep through the night already, 

but those hours before bed are tough!

You are by far the squirmiest thing I have ever held.

I think you smile for your brother Gavin the most

but you want me all the time. 

Your first holiday - 4th of July

you slept through it all.

You've gotten so big already, I'm missing your newborn-ness already.

one week - two weeks

three weeks - four weeks

You have completed our family - we love you so much!!!
