One Month Check-Up

Lily is getting so big! It is hard to believe that a whole month has passed since this little bundle of joy came out to bless our family. At her one month appointment today Lily weighed 8lbs. 5.4oz (exactly two pounds more than when she was born) and measured at 21.25 inches long. What a sweet little thing she still is!

The above picture was taken by my sister Kate a few days before Lily officially turned one month. Here are a few more just because she is so cute.

Photo Shoot

My sister Brooke came over when Lily was one and half weeks old to take some pictures with her fancy camera. There are too many amazing pictures to post them all, but here is a sample of my favorites. I am so blessed to be able to enjoy the real thing every day!

Beauty Secrets

Lily is a very beautiful little girl but how does she keep her stylish looks you may wonder...

Since her umbilical cord fell off, she has been upgraded to water baths. Clearly she still doesn't like them very much.The bath didn't last very long before I had to take her out. All that screaming is hard on a mom!

This past week I also attempted to conquer my fears of cutting Lily's nails. This is something I have been needing to do for a while but prolonged by buying mittens. I was able to cut one nail and file about 6 before giving up again. Maybe next week I will try again...

Lily is also working on getting strong with some quality tummy time. She likes this much more than baths and getting her nails cut. But the real secret is all the beauty sleep she gets.
