We don't have a lot of news this week. Elizabeth had her 1 month check up which came with a shot. She did wonderful only crying for maybe 30 seconds. Once the nurse handed her to me she stopped crying. I was more worried at first bc she held her breath when the nurse first stuck her. The good news for the day was that she has grown 2 inches in length, 2 pounds in weight and her little head has grown around 2 inches as well. She is average or above average in all the categories. Daddy was so proud to hear that news ( we all know where she gets her big head from) :)
On Saturday we will attend our first birthday party. Our neighbors little girl is turning 7 and they also have a 7 month old. Maybe Emily and Elizabeth and goo and ga ( not sure how to say that) at each other while the big girls play. We also found out this week that our family will be coming this month which means that Elizabeth will get to meet all of her cousins and aunts and uncles and get lots of kisses.

We have been told that we need to set up a blog so everyone can see pictures and stay up to date on the little world of Elizabeth. So here we go.
For everyone who is not up to date Elizabeth was born on May 1, 2008 at 1:00 a.m. weighing 6lbs 14oz and 19.25 long. She made her way into the world by section after putting mommy through 16 hours of labor but every hour was worth it. Since then she has been the center of our universe and has brought so much joy to our life. Just in the past month she has grown and changed so much it is really amazing. She can already roll from her stomach to her back and loves to lay on her side when sleeping in her crib. We are already working on a sleep schedule that is going pretty well. Except when grandparents visit :) They like to hold her a lot and tend to interrup the sleep schedule. That is ok though it only takes a couple of nights of crying for mommy and Elizabeth and we are back to normal. We are still waiting to meet our little cousins from Mississippi and Florida. Not everyone has made it up to see our new addition yet but hopefully will soon. We can't wait for them to meet her. Oh, I guess I should mention that she is the spitting image of her daddy. She has his nose, chin, hair line, and her hair is the color of his beard when he grows it out. I told him we should call her little A.
Well I guess that is enough for the first update. I will try to be diligent with this each week and not get to far behind. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoys our little family blog.
