1 Month Old

Daphne is 1 month old today!

It is hard to believe that this is really true. In some ways, it feels like it has gone by quickly, but mostly, it has gone by in slow motion. I am enjoying having nothing else that I need to do than just take care of her. We go for walks in the Moby wrap. She also goes out to Delphi and gets to meet all her honorary grandparents!

Here are some things that have changed about Daphne.

She now has control of her head about 90% of the time. She can't turn it side to side voluntarily yet, but she will hold it up when she is sitting up on your lap.

Her leg muscles are extremely strong, and if you hold her up for balance, she will support herself by standing on her legs. This is very impressive to me, but when she is awake, she likes to do it a lot. She gets stronger by the day.

Her field of vision has increased quite a bit, and she can see things far away, including the TV across the room.

She knows who Jared and I are, and she will turn her head or her eyes to find where we are in the room.

She will let me put her down in her crib if I keep the music on.

She sleeps through the night.

We are enjoying her so much!
