Amelie's First Professional Photo Shoot

Here are some of Amelie's first glamour shots :)

Amelie is One Month Old!

I know everyone says it but time really does fly by. I can't believe Amelie is one month old already. It seems every day she is getting bigger and more mature. I put her in her swing this morning and she can actually sit up in it and her head reaches the headrest! I took her to the health visitor yesterday and she is 9lbs and a little over 21 inches- right on the 50th percentile mark. She has had several good days in a row where she is happy during the day and sleeping at night, enjoying her bath and tummy time and overall in a cheerful mood. She is starting to smile a little although I'm not completely convinced it's not just gas that's causing the grin! She is starting to focus in on our faces and hopefully any day now she will be smiling at us and we'll know for sure that's what she means to do. she has a lot of spunk and so far her main personality trait is impatience. I think I am getting payback for all my years of impatience by having a daughter who screams and violently flails about at 3am when she has to wait more than 30 seconds for a bottle.

Here are some pictures of Amelie enjoying her bath time.

Here she is in her swing filling it out nicely!

Amelie's First Week

Here are some more photos and videos from Amelie's first week:

On the first day one of the midwifes showed Jeremy how to do the "tiger" hold. At first he was very tentative but now he's an old pro. It works really well to calm her down when she's having a meltdown :)

Fred and Ginger manage to get some lap time every now and then.

Amelie with her teddy bear from Grandpa Stellar and her blanket from Grandma Marion.

Amelie enjoying her swing from Biz, Beth and Amy.

And still competing strongly for the most hiccups in a lifetime title- 9 days and counting!

Amelie tired the boys out!

Our first adventure outside- we took Amelie to Hyde Park and Whole Foods.

Amelie has been having a little trouble getting enough food- but this is the face she makes when she does!
