Everything still feels very new and we are far from having any kind of schedule right now.
Emily is now 9 lbs 4 oz and is now too long for her newborn clothing but too tiny for the 0-3 month clothing.
Her hair is growing longer in the back but is very slow to grow in the front. It is a mixture of blonde, light brown and dark brown. Her eyebrows are light blonde. I don't know where she got that colouring from. I can only assume it'll all get darker as she gets older.
Her eye lashes are finally growing in. She has her Father's eyes so I'm not sure how long they'll get.
This week her facial expressions have more variety. It's nice seeing our baby girl with a less serious expression on her face. In fact, we witnessed her first smiles on Friday! No pictures yet but hopefully soon.
She is making a lot of different sounds now and is alert and engaging for short periods throughout the day.
Her days and nights appear to be a little mixed up. She does not go down at night yet... We end up holding her or wearing her or having her lay on our chest most of the night while she wakes up a hundred times. She's just not a baby who will lay there and be content to fall asleep.
We just marvel at our beautiful little girl and look forward to new milestones (and a schedule) while enjoying her lovely, tiny, newness a while longer.

Time does not slow down. I feel like it's flown by for us.
I love when they're more alert. It's so wonderful to see the smiles.
She's adorable.
Can't believe it's been a month already! She's adorable and it sounds like you guys are doing well.
