One Month!!!

It was difficult to get her to look at the camera for this pic

Our Taylor Grace is one month already! The time seems to have flown by even with the sleepless nights and days spent at home. We are treasuring every minute of parenthood so far! It is definitely a huge responsiblity and a lot of hard work ( though I'm sure we're still in the babymoon stage) but it has been the most precious thing that has ever happened in my life for sure!

We've finally reversed her nights and days!!! yay! She has lots of awake time in the day which is getting to be lots of fun for both of us! She follows voices around the room and has started to interact alot more when I talk to her. Its almost like each day the world unfolds a little more just for her . We are waiting for that smile- we've thought we've seen it a few times but I know its just around the corner.

I think she's gonna keep her blue eyes like her daddy!

Every morning Taylor and I sit in the glider and listen to our Baby Einstien World of Animals dvd ( Thank you Donna and Jill!) don't know what she can see right now but it definitely intrigues her for a good 20 min. I think she likes the noises and songs- mommy likes it too.

tummy time pics

sorry about the delay in posting. we took a bunch of pictures and just hadn't put any up. we thought we'd show you a few tummy time pictures. taylor's holding her head up well and working hard to climb over the pillows....rocking back and forth. i guess we should get some video because its pretty funny with her continuous talking while she's doing it.

i guess we'll have to have that talk about open mouth kissing a little earlier than i expected.

First bath and other fun pics

This is the time we gave Taylor a bath. We quickly realized its pretty drafty in the kitchen over the sink so we've now moved the baby bathtub to the bathroom tub. She did very well and almost seemed to enjoy the warm water.

Mark will not be happy with this picture- but mommy and Taylor played dress up today and I could not resist posting this picture! The bow is a bit large I know!

2 weeks old!!

Our sweet girl is already 2 weeks old!!! Her look changes all the time too. We went to the pediatrician this week and she is now a healthy 8lbs and 11 oz and she's now 21.5 cms in length. So we are off to a great start so far. Mark and I are pretty sleepy though since we 've been trading turns with her at night. She was a night owl in the womb so we've just started working to reverse her body clock- or at least we are trying to anyway. She's a sweet baby though and she loves to talk and make noises all day long. So far I can see alot of Mark in her facial expressions which has been really fun!
