Sleeping and Smiling

Rosemary is so close to sleeping through the night! One night, I fed her at 11:00 and I woke up at 5:22 and she hadn't woken up yet. I checked on her then laid back down. She didn't get up until 6:30. The next night she was up around 4:30 again, but then the night after that she made it until 5:30. So we're getting close!

She's starting to smile now while she's awake. I've tried to catch a picture of it, but I can't seem to. I'll keep trying and make sure to add it once I get a good one.

Two weeks ago Jason, Nikki, Charles, Schuyler, and Emma came to visit their new niece and cousin. While they were here, we went to the butterfly exhibit. A few picture from their visit are below.

Incredible people

No pictures today, but I just wanted to post that Jonathan and I have been blessed with the most incredible friends. Just yesterday Rosemary received another package of goodies from our friends Paul and Cristina (thanks guys!) and that was just one of many. We've gotten packages from Jim & Ellen, Matt & Stacey, my mom's Stacy, Becky & Steve gave her a ton of clothes, and my brother and his family just brought a ton of stuff, just to name a few. (Your thank you notes are coming, I just had to buy more because we ran out!). We've been brought dinner, many have called to check and see how we're doing, and so many have been lifting us up in prayer. It has been incredible!

One month old

Last week, we found out that Rosemary weighed 8 lbs, 9 oz. This was great news! She had gained a little over an ounce a day. Even with her spitting up she was still getting bigger.

Since Rosemary was born on January 31, we weren't quite sure when she would "officially" be one month old. We decided that February 28 would work. On the 28th we were finally able to give her a real bath. She loved getting her sponge baths on the vanity, but she wasn't a huge fan of sitting in the water when we set her in the sink. Hopefully she'll start to like it though.

Today we visited coworkers on campus. It was nice to be out and see everyone again. She's a charmer.



Rosemary's first bath.


She's so sweet!

Rosemary's eyes are still blue/grey. Jonathan and I both have a recessive gene so they could end up staying blue even though we both have brown eyes, but we'll see.


Here we are with Rosemary in her carrier. While my brother and his family are here I plan on using it. We're going to the butterfly exhibit so hopefully she likes walking around attached to me.

We did a little photo shoot today since she was all dressed up and it was so nice outside.

Aww...
Our little girl.
