One month old

I really can't believe already a month has gone by since Ella was born, she has changed so much and so has daily life, but I feel like a finding a new normal. She now weighs in at 11 lbs. and is 22 inches long, definately my girl at 95th percentiles for both height and weight. She is just starting to smile reallt big at us but I've yet to capture it on film really well. I love all her cute faces and how I will turn to do something and come back a second later to find her totally asleep. Ahh the newborn phase, it does have it's perks. She is sleeping at night pretty well, just wakes up to eat then goes right back to sleep, and is pretty calm during the day. Lily is loving the life out of her, literally, and we have to watch really carefully how much "love" she gives Ella. What a joy this new pretty girl is to our family, we can't wait to see what comes next.

What a little darling you have! Wow 11 lbs! I'm curious to see how big mine have grown. I totally understand about big sister loving them too much. It took Gracie a little while to warm up to them but once she did, oh dear! You really have to keep an eye on them. :)
