She is such a little doll. Tonight I got her first real giggle out of her. Now that she's found her giggle I expect we'll hear it a lot. She is a very happy smiley contented child and a pure JOY to be around. I can't help myself I laugh at her when she cries because she is SO STINKING CUTE even crying. She tries so very hard to be sad, but turns around 2 seconds later SMILING up at you like your the only person in the whole world and she knows how much you love her.
This pose is what we call a 'Baby Sausage' wrapped up tight arms at sides with another extra blanket to keep it tight. The purple and white rolled blanket is her baby blanket I crocheted for her. It's bright colors don't quite seem to fit her yet so while I wait for her to grow into them and it I've placed it beside her in her bed for a comfortable 'space reducer.' She loves to be cuddled and snuggled and this is some thing to make the large space in her bed seem like a smaller more cuddly space :) Even though she almost never even touches it!
I love this look! Her shirt says 'My <3 belongs to Daddy.'
We got her weighed today and she came in at 11lbs 1 oz. At 6 weeks she was 10lbs, 4 oz. Yup that is a Griggs girl as I told our wonderful Doctor :) Come out big babies, grow into small girls! She is really long though so maybe she'll be taller like E?? She eats enough, sleeps enough, poops enough and smiles and coos and now laughs. She's found her hands and loves to stare at her toes. She can make any one of the 7 people she has totally wrapped around numerous digits laugh out loud with just a look or a smile. She loves a good ceiling fan, you know the kind.. the ones that is on!, and enjoys 'kid watching' from her safe chair on couch for several hours a day. She still thinks the camera's green light is evil though has decided the Ipad2's camera is not :) So I have finally gotten a smiling picture but I don't as of yet have it on the computer. She loves to 'talk and tell stories' and can make a surprising number of sounds that are not words or cries. She hangs on tight to my shirt as she nurses and is already eyeing up the food on my plate. I'm going to have to start dressing her in a jacket even in her car seat as she's not falling asleep instantly in it anymore and enjoys looking out at the big wide world.. or at least the ceiling of the Travel all.
