Now playing: Lisa Loeb - What Am I Supposed To Say (Acoustic)

So our little lovebug is 1 month old! I am savoring each and every day with her and, while the month has gone by quickly overall, I do feel as though we are fully taking advantage of each minute we have with her, so I don’t feel like it’s “flying by” yet. Of course, that’s the top item of conversation from new parents - “the time flies by” - but so far, things are moving at a nice pace.

We took Lily for her first “big” car trip yesterday - 1 hour to Jon’s old college so that she could meet his friends. She handled the trip very well. We had to do lunch and a diaper change in the car in the parking lot, and she handled that very well too. She loves to be in the car and does very well with people. I was so proud of her!

She’s just now starting to become more aware of her surroundings and is breaking free of that newborn fog where she sleeps all the time. So, we’ve been taking advantage of that time by plopping her down on the floor:



She’s such a strong little one! This was taken about a week ago. When she was just about a week and a half old, she was doing so well with holding her head up. We’ve just been amazed! Of course, she hasn’t quite figured out the whole “use your legs to move” idea, but she’s got the position pretty good!

Of course, I’ve been going picture crazy with her. I’ve loved having both my Nikon D60 and the little pink Sony CyberShot that I treated myself to. I bought the CyberShot because I wanted a small, compact camera that I could carry with me at all times. Plus, it wouldn’t really be practical for me to take the D60 to Disneyland in June!

Here are a couple of my favorite photos:





I probably won’t be posting too many photos of her here publicly, since my husband’s not that comfortable with it, but I have been adding photos to my Facebook and MySpace so that people I know can see them.

It’s been such fun so far, though. I can’t believe how lucky we are to have such a beautiful, smart little baby girl!
