One month old!

Hello everyone!

Well yesterday Jensen was officially one month old! Woo hoo! I cannot believe it! Time is going by so fast...before I know it she's going to be going to college. Sigh...but we are enjoying every minute of being a family. Jensen is doing so well and is SUCH a great baby. She sleeps in 3-4 hour stretches at night, puts herself to sleep if drowsy and rarely cries. She gets a little fussy around 6 or 7 every evening but it's never too bad. She's so amazing and so cute if I do say so myself!

She's starting to smile a little, although I have yet to capture it on film. She's also really enjoying her mobile and activity mat as she gets to play with more and more things. The dogs have adjusted to her, and will walk by, give her a kiss and then keep on going. I think they've realized that she's not going any where. Davis will come and get me if she's in her crib crying and will turn circles and freak out until I get her calmed down. It's pretty cute.

Other than that we've been doing well. We're still waiting for spring to arrive here in Oregon. It's teasing us here and there but still raining. Our yard is in need of some serious work but we've been unable to get out there. (Oh darn right??!!) Hopefully this weekend I can plant some flowers and get all the weeds pulled. We'll see...luckily I have some sort of an excuse.

Well here are some pictures of Jensen at one month. It's amazing to see the difference in her. I hope you all are doing well :)

9 days old...and oh so tired :)

Hello!

Well I am finally starting to find time to get online and do some things. Although, it just takes a little longer. Jensen is thriving and so cute. I can't get enough of her. Marc and I spend so much time just staring at her. I love when she wakes up and is bright eyed looking around her crib. She loves the polka dots! We're doing well with sleep, she's been on a pretty good 3 hour schedule for the most part. She had some issues last night but we finally got to bed around 1:00 am. Not too bad.

She loves her bouncer chair and we've been on three walks since we had some nice weather around here this weekend. She loves being in her stroller. She's even made it to Costco and Babies R Us! We have been blessed so far with a pretty good baby...although we know that could change in a heartbeat!

Anyway, I'm doing well too. Recovery has been pretty easy. I've been walking with the baby and running errands. I'm trying to get as much sleep as possible but it's been a little hard. I always feel like I have other things to do but luckily Marc is still home and that's helping a lot.

Here are a few pictures...you may have seen them already. I'll post a link to picasa soon when we get everything uploaded!

Thanks everyone for your well wishes!

She's here!

Not much time to update today, but as most of you know she's here! We are doing great! Marc and I are pretty tired but it could be worse. She's put herself on a great 3 hour schedule (although I'm sure it won't last!) but still sleeping in three hour blocks is hard! I'll post some pictures and stuff this weekend!

Thanks for all the well wishes!
