Today you are 4 weeks old and Im not going to lie, mommy is pretty tired! You have been a good baby but a hungry one and so you wake up a lot at night to eat. In between eating I wake up a lot to your little grunts, snorts and whimpers. You even make a noise that sounds like a little goat, its cute. Daddy is so in love with you, and always talks about how cute and precious you are. He loves to kiss you all over and especially loves when you stare at him really close with your bobbly little head and big eyes. It really is cute and makes us laugh. You still don’t like your baths, but daddy has been so good at giving them to you. You scream your head off while your being washed but as soon as your snuggled in a towel you calm right down.  We hope you will start to like your baths soon, because right now they are pretty traumatic. Today you had your first blowout.. yay! haha It was messy! You didn’t seem to mind that your diaper exploded all up your back and actually seemed quite content after going to the bathroom . We love you so much Mae! You are sleeping right now and I am about to go wake you up to change your diaper and feed you. Love you sweet baby girl! You are so beautiful and make us so happy. Today I was realizing when I put you down for a nap how I started to miss you haha. I feel myself get more attached to you every day. It’s a great feeling. You are definitely loved.

Today she is 3 weeks old,  she came 2 weeks early on her dads birthday! which was a great surprise! Honestly the whole situation has felt pretty surreal and I have to remind myself daily that i'm a mom now, & that I have a daughter, she is our baby :) We love her so much and fall more in love every day:) 

We love her tiny little body, her cute little feet, her blonde hair and tiny fingers, the way she smells (when she is clean :). She is just so small and sweet and we love cuddling with her as much as we can!!

She is a good baby but when she is hungry, she definitely lets us know and she is ready to eat now. not in a few minutes. and isn't particularly fond of her diaper changes, unless a warm heater is blowing on her. Cant blame her though those diaper wipes are freezing! She loves to cuddle and falls asleep no problem when mom or dad are holding her, and especially loves tummy time with daddy. She doesnt really know what to think about her binkies yet and most of the time she decides she doesn't like them. She likes to listen to white noise when she is sleeping and loves to be swaddled up tight. She smiles all the time, but usually when she is eating or right after she is eating. 

We love you so much Mae and are so happy you are a part of our family! We are so lucky we get to be your parents and cant wait for all of the fun we are going to have!!!
