One Month

I can't believe it, but tomorrow Emma will be five weeks old. It just doesn't seem like time should pass that quickly. It has been hard to savor each moment of her newborn-ness, while equally hoping that the time will pass more quickly until Jonas comes home each day. We have been very busy, even on the days where we just stay home. Up to this point, Emma has not required much attention, but now that she is awake more during the day, I feel obligated to entertain her. She is no longer to just sit in the bouncer while Lilah and I play. Emma's a snuggler, which makes it hard, but is so very sweet. Like Lilah, she sleeps well in my arms but not so well once I put her down. The exception to that is at night, where she will sleep on her own in the bassinet (thank goodness!).

So, I have pictures from 6 days and one month for both Lilah and Emma. I think they look very different. Emma makes a lot of the same faces that Lilah made at this age, but when I try to catch it on camera, it just doesn't look the same. Funny. Anyway, Emma at one month is up to 10 lbs 10 oz. (Lilah was right at 11 lbs at one month).
