Sweetness.

Mila is all SMILES all the time. Elvis makes this funny noise and she loves it. She smiles so big when she hears it. She is definitely a morning baby. She is all smiles the second she wakes up. However, she is a little cranky at night. Definitely more like her dad in that sense. HA HA! She sleeps in her Pack 'n Play by our bed at night, but she will take naps in her crib sometimes. The other day, I put her in her crib while I was getting some clothes for her and when I turned around, she was on her side. I think she’s trying to roll over…but it’s probably too soon for that. She’ll be 3 months on March 4^th. I can’t believe it!

Today was hard. I missed her a lot. I went to Hobby Lobby during lunch and saw a baby and it took all I had not to cry!  The second I got inside my car, the water works turned on! I couldn’t help it. I just missed her so badly! I can’t wait to get home and see her sweet smile!

I'm crossing my fingers that I will get to stay home with her a little more very soon!

First Bath! (12.6.2010)

She hardly fit in the little bather we bought her. She was rolling around like a little worm. She wasn't very happy about it...! Although, I wouldn't be either. You can use little rubber duckies with HOT on the bottom to gauge the water temperature. If HOT appears in white, the water is too hot. Well, in order for it HOT not to appear, the water practically has to be cold! My friend, Karen, told me to  use my elbow. She has done much better with bath time now that I use warm water.

First Shots

Mila had her 1st shots on February 7th, 2011! It was probably one of the most devastating days of my life! She screamed in pain/horror! As soon as that nurse was done, I grabbed her and couldn't let go. Luckily, by the time we got home, she had forgotten all about it and was all smiles!
On a good note, she is healthy! Her stats are 9 lbs and 8 oz (10%-yep, she's small) and 22 inches long (30%).

Mila is smiling and "talking" to herself now! When she is awake, she has the biggest and brightest eyes!
