Holy crap! Where has the time gone? How is my baby 4 weeks old?!
In just 2 days she will be exactly 1 Month! WHAT?!
My little squishy is getting so big!
I feel like Emma is so long! I hope she will be taller than her daddy and I!
I also hope that her beautiful big blue eyes stay blue.
I always said I wanted a daughter with light eyes and dark hair.
I think that the dark hair with the light eyes is such a pretty combo!
In pictures it looks like she has black hair, but her hair is actually brown!
Dark brown, but with some light brown streaks all over.
I might be biased, but how did I get so lucky with such a beautiful little girl? 🙂
Emma is very attached to me, she wants me to hold her all the time, and I’m the only one that can really calm her down when she’s upset. I don’t mind! I love that I’m her favorite and I hope I’m her favorite FOREVER and ever!
I’m still exclusively breastfeeding, I love the bond she and I share.
I love when she looks up at me and hold my finger, it’s the sweetest thing.
I’ve been pumping here and there, mostly for relief, but I hate it.
It’s gonna be hard when I go back to work because I’ll have to pump all the time to be able to leave milk with my mom so she can feed Emma.
I decorated the house for Halloween finally, and I started to put Emma in Halloween clothes.
I’m collaborating with a couple of shops for Halloween and I am so excited!
I can’t wait to share her beautiful handmade costume!
Halloween is my all time favorite holiday.
This is it for weekly updates!
I just wanted to record her first month, but now we’ll be doing monthly updates! 🙂
I’m sure I’ll still take weekly pics since I’m obsessed with pics, and maybe I’ll just make a post and post all the weekly pics in one, how does that sound?

My first Mother’s Day started by driving back home from Orlando. We had a super last minute trip to Magic Kingdom! You can read about it HERE. We drove to my parent’s house to give my mom her present, we got her an iPhone 6S – she had been dying for a new phone, so…
So last weekly update I wrote about how Emma’s pediatrician wanted me to supplement breastfeeding with either my milk (pumped in a bottle) or formula.

So tomorrow is the big day and I am freaking out!!!!! I’ll finally know if my baby is a boy or a girl. My hormones are going crazy and my nerves are getting the best of me. Did any other mamas feel super nervous too? I don’t have a preference. Honestly. It’s my…
