One Month Old

I can't believe it, but Friday our little Sophie turned 1 month old.  My how time fly's!  Speaking of time, we have been super busy and that is why I couldn't write this until today.  Life has certainly changed and I can't imagine it without her now.  She is such a blessing and I am so thankful that God gave us Sophie.  I tell everyone who ask if she is a good baby that she is wonderful and that I prayed hard for a good baby.  God is good!

She has already amazed us with how fast she is developing and growing.  She is such a sweetie, even when she keeps us up every once in a while because she just wants to be held.  I don't mind doing it though because before we know it she'll be too old to want to be held.  On Friday night she was up until 2am or so and as I was holding her I was so very tired and I was getting aggravated, and I looked down at her and she was looking up at me and I told her I was sorry for getting ill.  She just got the biggest grin across her face and it melted my heart.  I love her so much, even when she keeps me up at night.

There are some things that we have learned about Sophie in this short little month of her life.  She likes to take a bath in her tub, suck her daddy's nose, look at herself in a mirror, and be cuddled.  She, however, does not like to be dirty, she has a very distinct mad cry which we usually only hear when she is very hungry or when she is so tired and just wants to be held.  She doesn't like to have lotion put on her, but she has no other choice, she lives in Wyoming!  She does however love her pacifier.  She is starting to have longer awake periods which is fun, I love looking into those big, beautiful blue eyes of hers.  She has lots of funny faces she makes too and we try to capture as many as we can on camera.  She likes her carseat, which I am thankful for because I know some kids can't stand them.

All in all, Sophie is amazing and I thank God for blessing Travis and I with such a wonderful, beautiful baby!
