One Month!

4 weeks

Daily attire!

This is pretty much what I look like these days which made it extra special to be able to get a haircut and pedicure yesterday.Much deserved!

Mom didn't know what to do with herself last night :) Leigh & Carter got married and dad stayed home with Margaret so I could go. It was nice to have adult interaction but I of course missed my little girl. Thank you daddy for being such a trouper yesterday and last night. I can not thank you enough! I love you so much!!!!

3 weeks down

Can not believe my little girl is one month old tomorrow.

Been a great but challenging month. The poor thing spits up a lot! We took her to the doctor last week bc not only is she spitting up, she seemed to be miserable after feedings. We wanted to make sure it isn't acid reflux so she is on medicine and mom is off dairy. The spit up is still happening but she is much happier after feedings so not sure if it is dairy or the medicine. So hard trying to narrow it down.

She is growing faster than I ever imagined. On Tuesday, she weighed 8 lbs. 15 oz. Um what! slow down little girl! Hate to say it but I am sure she is 9 lbs. now. We will find out Tuesday when we go for a follow up.

Grandma C watched her one afternoon so I could run a few errands. I went to pick her up at 5 and both dad and I had the same idea, leave her there a lil longer and run to the club for a quick dinner. Before I left, we put her down in a family cradle. Her great grandmother slept in it along with every member of the Moor & Cassidy family.

Margaret was wide awake one morning so we decided to have a photo session with her adorable gowns. We only made it through two until she couldn't handle it anymore :)

Great Grandmother Mimi got her this gorgeous gown and bonnet

Soon-to-be Aunt Megan's mom and sister were in town last Monday and stopped by to meet Margaret. They brought her this adorable gown. Thank you so much! We love it!

Uncle James and Soon-to-be Aunt Mary Jane were in town for Leigh's wedding and finally got to meet Miss Margaret. James was a lil tense if you can't tell :) We love you!!

Adam Flynt, pastor at Access Church, came by to bring us dinner and meet the newest addition. Thank you again for dinner. It was delicious.

Time is flying . . .

way too fast!!! Can not believe my little girl is 3 weeks old today.

The weather has been so nice this past week, we decided to spend some time outside in the backyard . . . that is before I noticed we have little tiny bugs we can not get rid of.

So happy to get some fresh air

Hiding from mom and dad

Tummy time . . . not her favorite thing to do. Of course the one time she really picked her head up, mom didn't have the camera.

Happy Easter

Mom's Easter Basket growing up . . . now it is Miss Margaret's

After a long morning of photos, cottontail was worn out!

Not so Perfect . . .

we will always think she is perfect, however, she has had her moments this week. She's been fussier than normal, on and off cluster feedings, gas, or just wants to be held. We've had a couple of rough nights but Thursday night was the icing on the cake. We slept may be one hour! Poor thing screamed for hours and hours! She sounded congested so at 3am, we were trying to suck mucus out of her tiny nostrils. Definitely a site to see, two sleep deprived parents not knowing what they were doing. She did better last night but we are still pretty sleep deprived. She unfortunately has slept most of the afternoon so I hope she sleeps tonight. Hard to keep a newborn awake.

Mom and dad were able to have a couple of outings this past week just the two of us. Tuesday night we headed to the club to use John's birthday dinner. We dropped her off with GMC & GFC, enjoyed a nice dinner and after an hour, looked at each other not knowing what to do. Today, Gigi and Pops watched her so we could run some errands. We had lunch outside at the Brick to enjoy the wonderful weather. We walked around a couple of stores and headed to the grocery store and of course Lowes to finish our errands. Definitely nice for me to get out of the house especially after being cooped up day and night!

Thank you grandparents for watching Margaret so John and I could get out of the house and spend time together!
