Already a month OLD!!!

I can't even believe that my lil mama will be a month old tomorrow. It really feels like yesterday that I went into labor with her! If that month went by fast I can only imagine how fast the others will go by. I so enjoy just holding her. It seems like she is trying to do so much already. Sometimes she yanks her pacifier out of her mouth all by herself. Then there are days that she really tries to lift her head up and she is getting pretty good at it. She can't hold it up pretty long but that doesn't even matter to me. She's already making strides!!!

Yesterday while at my mom's house, I ran across my newborn pictures and the scary thing is, Ashlynn looks just like me. Only, I don't see it when I look at her, I have to look at a picture to see it. I've gotten so used to "she looks just like Trice" or "I see your mom in her" . I never really hear, "she looks just like you". When I saw that picture I was so excited!!!

I've been letting her sleep on her tummy when she takes naps as long as I am up to watch her and she is so much more comfortable that way. Too bad I won't let her sleep like that at night. Speaking of night, our nights are getting so much better. She's sleeps for hours at a time until she's hungry. She does sleep in the bed with us because it's easier for me to nurse that way. I used to be worried that she wouldn't be able to sleep at all unless she was with us, but during the day she naps on the couch and in her bassinet without us so she's doing just fine!

I'm finally feeling more comfortable with her because I've got her figured out now. Most of the time, all she needs is to be held and she's content.

Life is good and I am truly blessed!
