7 weeks!!!

my baby girl is 7 weeks today!  it seems like so long ago, but at the same time like it was yesterday.  she gets cuter and more beautiful by the day.  her personality is starting to shine through and i can already tell she is going to be a fire cracker.

bowie's milestones...

~trying to roll over (did it once from tummy to back for daddy)
~lots of cooing and grunting
~cheeks and belly are filling out
~social smiles in full effect (best part of my day)
~slept for a 5 hour stretch at night (although this only happened once, trying to work up to it again)
~eyelashes are getting thicker and fuller
~hair continues to fall out
~i think we may be heading into another growth spurt this week and she has been feeding non-stop
~out of newborn diapers and is now in a size 1
~only a few newborn outfits still fit, almost in the next size, although it is still a little big on her

 mom's milestones...

~able to enjoy the occasional glass of wine
~breast feeding is becoming a little easier and we are still pumping for her bottles at night time.  on good days i may be able to get a feeding ahead but still not enough to start freezing
~getting better at using the baby wrap to go hands free
~able to multi task a little and get some stuff done around the house.  i felt like the first 4 weeks i was unable to do ANYTHING.  so it is a great feeling to start to feel on top of stuff and be able to get some chores done around the house
~went to my 2nd la leche meeting and am enjoying all the support and resources from this group of women 
~had my 6 week postpartum check up and my doctor was pleased with my recovery
