1 Month Already!

It's true! Elaine Karis is a whole month old, plus a couple of days! I am having a tough time discerning what day she actually was a month old, because June doesn't have 31 days. It may seem silly, but it seems to be the little things that really get me flustered!
She is doing wonderfully and is more and more alert each day. We have moved her out of our room into her own room (makeshift until we move), and after she got used to it, I think she has really liked it. She is sleeping about 5 hours at a time at night and taking a couple of good naps through out the day. Hopefully in the next week or so we will have her schedule down. She is eating well, but Elaine is definitely a spitter! Thankfully we have bibs and burpies to catch most of it, and occasionally my shirt or pants! We had an encouraging visit to Dr. Scroggie on Tuesday, he said she is pretty perfect- we agree! Elaine is weighing 9 lbs 7 oz and is 21.5 inches long, right between the 50th and 75th percentile on both. Such a joy to watch her grow!

Hey Angela,

You may not remember me. I was in your impact camp and in phi lamb when i was a fish. Your love for Jesus has always encouraged me. I was excited to find your blog and see you're doing well. Love you.
