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 Sweet Nina – 3 Weeks!!! WHAT! You had your first bottle! Mommy pumped so Daddy could feed you, and you did so great! You had 2 ounces of breastmilk and you drank it all up! We did our home newborn session, you already look so big my baby! 🙁 We took your siblings back…
My Sweet Girl! Mommy kind of misses your monthly updates, so to keep track of your growth and memories, I decided that I’m just going to write a post here and there! Since your first birthday, you are growing and learning at lightning speed! You had 0 teeth, and now you are growing 2 at…

Baby Girl you are 2 Months! TWO MONTHS!!! STOP IT! 🙁 Even though I’m loving how more aware you are becoming, I miss my squishy baby who just slept on me all day! And it’s also sad that time just goes by so fast, next thing I know you’ll be running around, pulling Cooper and…
Baby Girl is 2 Weeks Old! Oh my goodness! How? It feels just like yesterday that I was at the hospital. I remember giving birth so clearly! So Emma went back to the doctors at 12 Days Old (10/1) and she had only gained 1oz in 7 days. The doctor asked me to supplement…

So although I wasn’t planning on doing updates this often (I combined 13 & 14 Months here) I cannot believe how much you are growing and learning every day, so I wanted to write down all the great (and not so great) things you have been up to this month, so one day you (and I)…

I have gotten such amazing feedback on my blog posts, thank you so much! I wanted to share with you what I packed (and chose to NOT pack) in Baby Girl’s Hospital bag. I packed different sized onesies. I packed Newborn size and 0-3 Months size since I don’t know what will fit her. I…
