Almost 6 weeks old!! Wow!! I cant believe my maternity leave is half way over and that our little girl is growing up so quickly! I have to say that honestly in this last week I have seen her grow the most yet! She is smiling, cooing, kicking those arms and legs......and of course the scale is changing too! Haha! I'm just hoping to keep her in these 0-3month clothes a little longer!! Taking a quick look at motherhood so far and being a parent over these last 6 weeks has definitely made a big change on the home front too. I was laughing to myself this morning when I went to make the bed and found 3 burp clothes, an empty bottle and a pacifier in between the sheets! Haha, things sure have changed!
Evelina had quite an exciting week last week with her grandparents. Although I don't think she minded all the extra spoiling! At the end of their trip it was really tough to see them leave, I'm sure Evie is missing her grandma's voice and the prickliness of grandpa's beard! We talk about them in the wee hours of the morning though so I'm sure that when they get to visit again she will be all caught up on how much they had been missing her! My first Mother's Day was really nice! I got to spend a nice brunch with family and got to relax for the afternoon, which was much needed. Daddy got home around 11:30pm so I still got a little spoiling from him with a gift and a home-made card (I should take a picture of this card because it's a sweet message scrolled onto a piece of cardboard haha)!
To kick off this week.......Eve got her first diaper change in her new house! We went to check out the house on Monday and wouldn't you know it, she had not one but TWO blow-out diapers onto her clothes! We improvised a changing table out of a chair that we draped a blanket over and made the quick diaper change only to have to do it again about five minutes later! Needless to say we didn't get to venture through the house quite as long as we would've liked but things are shaping up pretty nice! We cant wait until it's finished in late summer!
All pictures taken on this 6 weeks post were taken by "mum", her Iowa Grandma. I so enjoyed the precious time we had to hold her and cuddle. She's a doll, a precious doll. And her Mom is a beautiful woman with a warm heart that is patient with her little newborn, very proud of her, my little girl grew up into a wonderful woman, wife, and mother. Love to both my girls
