*1* Month Old


Our sweet Finlay is a month old! My heart aches for time to stand still or at least slow down, it's going by SO fast! I'm doing my very best to embrace each and every moment, even the difficult ones. And difficult moments are abundant to say the least! I find myself repeating the lyrics to "It Won't Be This Way For Long" over and over again in my head while trying to calm my screaming baby in the middle of the night. No matter how long and trying the nights may be, though, the daylight always brings me a brighter outlook and renewed love for this infant stage. Each day she changes and discovers something new and we are seeing less and less of a newborn. We have caught a few smiles and even a glimpse of a dimple {melt!}. Her head control gets stronger every day. I love making faces at her and watching her try to imitate me. She's particularly skilled at sticking her tongue out:)

Delicious if I do say so!
