Great grandma

I took Matilda to meet my grandparents last weekend. We had a really nice time. She got fussy during dinner but she did great in the car and slept through the night for the first time!

Happy Birthday, Eric!!

This smile is for you!

So close

Matilda and her cousin, Boston met for the first time last weekend. They are so cute and only 25 days apart!

Hiccup

Yay!

So big!

Look at her standing up!

Great Aunt Mona

Great Aunt Mona came to visit Matilda last week. It was a fun visit and they got along great!

Bumblebear

The weather has been lovely recently so we put Matilda in her swing seat and brought her outside to the patio.
The little bear hanging from the top would swing in the breeze and Matilda seemed fascinated.
It's so cool to see her interested in her toys and surroundings.

Snuggle

Matilda noticed her toys this week. She likes to hold this pink puppy.

Yawn

Sweet

My girl is pretty in peach!

Two Sleepy Girls

New Developments

Matilda is 6 weeks old today. So far she has learned to cry... and smile and laugh, and she recognizes Ed and I as her parents. She has rolled over, is growing well and holds her head up while she's laying on her tummy, and this week she started to notice her toys and her hands, and here's a video of her using both of those developments reaching for her teddy bear!

Hmmm... I don't know...

Peek-a-boo

Joy

Matilda laughed for the first time on Saturday.

Hello, happy girl!

Our First Tornado

We had bad storms on Monday night, and we had to head to the basement to take cover.
Thankfully, the tornado that was spotted didn't do any damage to our neighborhood. Here we all are hanging out under the steps. Matilda slept through the whole thing.
I used to find storms exciting. They never ever scared me. Until last night. It's totally different when you have the baby to worry about.

Church Clothes

Most of the time Matilda just wears jammies or a diaper, but on Sundays I get to put her in her little dresses and fancy hats for church and she looks so cute! Check out the pinkness from this week!

I got my hands back!

My baby wrap arrived today and it works great! Matilda is happy and snuggly in there, I'm more comfortable and I can actually do things with both hands again! It's awesome!
Here she is all wrapped up.
