1 Month

Wow, my first month here! What a long journey it has been to finally arrive. When Mommy and Daddy first saw me I was just a little peanut inside Mommy's belly(6 weeks and 4 days). Now look at me! After 4 days in the Hospital I was ready to come home. I love being at home! Gracie and Gunner have not figured me out yet. This month has been an obstacle for me to gain weight. But, I am finally on the up and up. My umbilical cord fell off on Wednesday, May 16th and my first sponge bath at home was on Thursday, May 17th. It was okay, I am sure I will enjoy it much more when I can splash Mommy and Daddy. This month I am turning my head and looking around, very alert, and I can follow objects very well. I hold onto my thumbs all of the time and suck on my fists. Wonder if I will be a thumb sucker? I can also smile, the nurse said it was gas, but we know it is a smile. I try to hold my own paci with my dainty little fingers and I already have things I am trying to say. What a big girl! I am the most loved baby in the world! I just know it! Mommy and Daddy Thank God every day for me, I am their miracle!
