This is all I wanted!

Melissa and I have been fighting the last couple of days with swaddling. She isn't wanting her arms tide down, so today I gave in an let her take a nap with her arms out and it worked! I don't know if I want to try it tonight.

Our first outing together

Monday, July 30, 2007

Today was the first time that Melissa and I got out of the apartment by ourselves! Since I was just released from my doctor on Friday, I had to try getting out on my own with Melissa. We didn't go to far, just to Babies R' Us! She was so good, it made feel good about getting out with her.

One of the first

Thursday, July 26, 2007


Well today was one of the first for Melissa. I have been trying for awhile to get her to like the swing. Today she gave into the swing and slept for 45 minutes. I'm hoping she will like her swing even more!

Here are some new pictures of Melissa!

Melissa's 1 Month Pictures

Saturday, July 21, 2007


We took Melissa to have her 1 month pictures taken today! She did really good considering how young she is. I just had to have these made, she isn't going to be this small much longer. As they say, you always have lots of pictures of your first child and then forget about the others.






Melissa's 1 month check up

Friday, July 20, 2007



Today Melissa had her 1 month check up and she is doing well. She is weighing in at 8lb 8oz and is 20 1/4 in long. She is also cooing (talking), reaching out for things! Her doctor is very impressed with how she is growing. He didn't see anything wrong with her! She is also sleeping very well at night and taking good naps!


Melissa did get another Hepatitis B vaccine this time. Next month she gets 4 shots!

My Friend Kaelyn

Today my friend Kaelyn Baker came to see me. I wasn't in a good mood so I needed a nap. Kaelyn's mom Lena and my mom worked together at Southwest and where pregnant around the same time. Kaelyn is 3 months older than me. Here are two pictures of us.

Melissa is 4 weeks old (1 month)

Sunday, July 15, 2007


Oh my where has the time gone! Our little girl is already 1 month old (July 17th). We are so blessed to have her in our life. Melissa has already brought us so much joy and we know there is more to come. Paul and I didn't know we could love someone so much as we love her.


Today we went to church for the first time since Melissa was born. I had her dressed in the outfit we brought her home from the hospital and it finally fits her. We can tell she is getting longer and gaining lots of weight.

On my way to church! I love my carseat!

Ok mom stop taking pictures I want to go to sleep!
