Photo Fun and One Month update

One month has flown by and we documented our new family by getting some professional photos done. It was so fun to see Elyse smile and pose for photos! She is getting so big-at her first month check up she now weighs 9.3 pounds and is 21.5 inches long. We continue to be very lucky that she is still sleeping an average of 7 hours a night and eating well.

Ben and I are adjusting to parenthood with ease and enjoy going for walks and having tummy time with Elyse. I think we have narrowed down what each cry means whether it is hungry, tired, or wants attention. She loves to cuddle with us and continues to smile, play, and coo. Everyday we learn something new about her and continue to feel blessed that we have such a perfect daughter!

4 weeks old

We can't believe that Elyse is a month old already (well in a few days)....time really has flown way too fast. Elyse is doing great and so are Mommy and Daddy. She is getting big so fast and starting to develop a little personality. Elyse loves to play and smile and she is definitely a Daddy's girl already. Here are some fun pictures to enjoy of the past few weeks.

We dressed Elyse as a little kitten...this is before Mommy and Daddy's first night out.

A BIG SMILE and her first giggle.

Play time :)

We had a little photo shoot...this is one of my favorites and I think I caught a smile.

So cute!

She already poses for the camera.
