Holy smokes! Where did the last month go? I can’t believe Holly’s already been a member of our little Muirhead family for one complete month. She’s a treasure! Holly likes to keep Conor and I on our toes; we’re always wondering if she’s going to sleep tonight. And I always wonder if she’ll go back to sleep easily after I feed her in the wee hours of the morning. She’s a pretty content baby however, she definitely has her moments and nights. She loves being held and especially likes the Baby Bjorn. Holly had her one month check-up today and I was surprised to learn that my baby weighs 8.5 lbs, putting her in the 30% for weight! I’m so proud of her and of myself since nursing has been a struggle. I knew she was putting on weight since she’s a poo and pee machine, but I didn’t realize it was that much!

18 Aug, 2009Happy 1 month Holly! We love you so much, even though I joke that you’re a “stunt baby” because we haven’t seen you in person yet.
Please stay little for a few more weeks, we can’t wait to snuggle you up and spoil you rotten. /images/smileys/icon_smile.gif

18 Aug, 2009Holly is so adorable and tiny! Amazing how fast time flies, eh? Glad you are all doing well. So sorry you’re having some troubles with nursing – I did too, but I promise it gets easier and it is really worth hanging in there!

17 Aug, 2009That’s a great accomplishment!! Just think Felix started at 8.3 he’s way bigger now! It’s great that she is growing and staying teeny tiny for you at the same time, it means she might still be teeny tiny when I get to finally meet her. She’s such a doll!
