Happy One Month Birthday!

Today Lucy is one month old! I cannot believe it has been one whole month since this day. Part of me feels like it was just yesterday we were meeting our daughter for the first time. Time seems to be flying by and it needs to slow down so we can savor everyday with our newborn baby.

Okay so with Baby Reese on the way and ample time off (6-days off in a row) I was doing my baby research and found this...http://www.thewoombie.com/. Now I know it looks a bit scary and like it would be mean to put your baby in, but tons of people swear by it if their child likes to be swaddled really tight. Maybe try it?? I know all the premies at work can't ever seem to be swaddled tight enough and it safer than a blanket since the whole SIDS thing. Let me know what you think.

Happy one month birthday! It is hard to believe that 4 weeks have passed since Feb. 6. It won't be too long and Lucy will have another girl cousin and then another girl cousin. Wow.
Keep trying the blooper because one day she will love it like you...it is inherited. haha.
