Thursday, June 9 - 10 weeks old!!

10 weeks old.......and this little lady survived her first night away from Mommy (with Daddy only)!!! Haha, I dont think there was anything to worry about on Evelina or Daddy's end but Mommy on the other hand was a different story! I cried twice just getting ready that morning to leave for New York for a friend's wedding! Then rocked her back to sleep still with teary eyes and left her with Daddy all snuggled up in bed! I will say that after we got on the road it was easier and once I was catching up on gossip and medical cases with my two PA buddies Kim and Kelli....it really was a much needed break! The wedding was beautiful and sooo much fun to put on some heels and then kick them off with friends!


So literally as I'm blogging.......my little angel's eyes are getting heavy as she is watching her lamb friends circle above her head while rocking in her swing. Up until the last couple of weeks she would maybe last 10 minutes in any swing but now she is so content watching the mobiles above her head it rocks her right to sleep! I guess this goes to show me again how much she is really changing week to week! I already miss all the little newborn things about her like her being so content nuzzled up on our chest in this perfect little peanut shape........now she enjoys that for a minute or two and then needs to see what else (or what lights) she is surrounded by!
Other advancements that I feel like she has made in the last week is working on her hand-eye-coordination! She is getting so good at batting at her little toys in her play gym while kicking her legs in excitement that she can do it! Miss Eve has also mastered the art of flirting......she is all smiles when her diva needs have been taken care of.....namely just being fed and some good rest! She will smile forever with her Daddy making perfect cooing noises or squeals!Haha this looks like she is already talking back to her Daddy!!!

Evelina hasn't had any other real adventures this week........we tried to go to a Mommies group but we were the only ones there so we had lunch with Aunt Minda and cousins Lily and Adi!! We are going to the Great Grapes Wine Festival this weekend which should be fun as long as it's not over 100 degrees like it has been every other day this week! We did get one walk in this week but every other day has been too hot to venture out for very long!


Next week will be my last week at home with my little girl! Ahhh it's even hard to just type that out! I go back to work on the 20th and some family members will be watching her during the daytime! At least with family I will be able to badger them for a quick video or picture to get me through the times when I am missing her! I guess the upside is that I truly do love my job so going back to work in that sense isn't difficult! I'm actually looking forward to checking up on some of my patients that I havent seen since March! Plus, being able to do an examination will be sooo much easier now without my belly in the way!



Below is a video of her smile sessions that always start by giving her kisses on those big cheeks! She absolutely loves it! Sorry my videoing skills aren't that great! I haven't quite mastered holding my iPhone and taping at the same time!
