Alice 4 Months

She is the most beautiful and content baby... ever. Wow, I feel so lucky to have her. I was telling Nick the other day that she blends in so well with our family. Her personality is mild and calm, a perfect match for Scarlett's intensity and stubbornness. How did we ever live without her?

Things I love

- She eats her fingers/hands all day

- She will lay her head on my shoulder and snuggle with me

- grabs her toes and then laughs

- Smiles/ laughs even when she is tired and hungry

- Has turned into a great eater and is starting to take a bottle

- After I nurse her she always gives me a big, gummy smile, even her middle of the night feeding

- And by middle of the night I mean 5:30- 6:30 feeding (then she goes back to sleep till I wake her up)

- I love most ... Nursing her in the rocking chair in her room with the lights dimmed and the fan going. It is peaceful and perfect. I snuggle her up in a blanket and she rubs her baby hands on my arm or grabs  the collar of my shirt. She will occasionally look up at me and just smile. I know she loves me and I love her. On busy/crazy days it is this moment that gets me through.
