One Month

Where has the month gone. I have never seen a month just fly by. It is just so hard for me to imagine that just one month ago she was just arriving into our lives. So far we are doing pretty good. I am still kinda sore from my c-section and both Ricky and I are figuring out how to function on sleep deprivation. It is truly the hardest job to be a mom but by far the most rewarding. Tomorrow we go see the pediatrician for Sophia's one month check-up and I am excited to see how much she has grown. In this past month we have had a few outings. Since coming home we went to Maymont Park and saw the spring flowers and animals, out to eat at Outback Steakhouse for lunch with Daddy, fishing with Daddy and Grandpa, shopping with Grandma a few times, visited by Aunt Becca and Uncle Steve for the weekend, visited by her Godfather Drew and her God sisters Emma and Layla, and visited Carter and Terry (Ricky's other parents). So far Sophia is able to hold her head up, roll over on her sides from her back, starting to coo, found her hands, turns her head at familiar voices, very attentive and looks around at everything around her and smiles. She is keeping us guessing on what color her hair is going to be. Sometimes it looks dirty blond and other times it looks like strawberry blond. Both Ricky and I were blond babies. I was blond until I was 6 months old and Ricky was blond until about 3 years old.
