1 week.

I can't believe it's been one week since Lily's arrival and how crazy we are about our new precious bundle. It's true. As soon as your second child arrives, your heart grows so much bigger and you're so deeply in love the instant you see them. I was actually very curious as to how I could love another baby as much as I already love my sweet boy. But, you just do. It's insane. My love cup is overflowing.

It's been a wonderful week. We had our first outing to the pediatricians office for a one week visit and she's doing beautifully. Almost back to her birth weight, weighed in at 7lbs 13 oz. Yea for the good ole milk coming in and doing it's job ;) Sorry, that may have been a little much for the male followers! ha! 

Somehow I'm functioning on very low fuel, but am doing great. Liliana has been a fantastic nurser, sleeper, and hardly ever cries. It's hard to tell if the last two traits will stick around or not since she's in the beginning stages of life where she is so sleepy. Fingers crossed!

"These are the moments, I thank God that I'm alive.
These are the moments, I'll remember all my life.
I've found all I've waited for, and I could not ask for more."
(Couldn't help but have this tune stuck in my head as I typed this by the wonderful country singer, Sara Evans).

Happy one week my precious angel!

Wonderful thoughts. Isn't it nice to know she's still so sweet and easy after almost four weeks? Wish you could get more sleep. That will come. :)
