One month come and gone...



On Thursday, Kacey celebrated her 1 month birthday! Happy birthday little goob! Everything is going so great. I can't believe how much she is growing each and every day. At her one month doctor's appointment, she weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs. 14oz (72 percentile) and is a very tall 23 inches (95 percentile). She's still fitting into her newborn clothes, but I think that will be coming to an end soon. They're just getting a little too short on her. She's going to be a tall one like her daddy!

We successfully made it through Tim's trip to Chicago. My mother-in-law came and stayed with us and that helped quite a bit. We're so happy to have him home though. She definitely missed her daddy! Kacey and I are finally getting onto somewhat of a schedule. She's been sleeping well at night and she's napping better and better during the day (this makes for a very happy mommy too!). We transitioned her into her bassinette this past weekend and that's letting us get better sleep too. While we miss having her in our bed, the last thing we want is to have a 5 year-old who can't sleep anywhere else but with us. She's even started smiling and cooing much more over the past week. It just melts my heart when she gives me that big toothless grin.

She's just a beautiful and wonderful little girl. We are very lucky parents. Although sometimes it makes me a little sad that she is growing up so fast, I can't wait for the new things that every day brings with her.

That is great about moving out of the bed. We transitoned our little girl into her crib around that time and my sleep improved so much.
