We are starting to settle into life as a family a bit more, and Chloe has had a big weekend of firsts. Here's a few pics for your entertainment. Oh, they're in reverse order, sorry.
Sleeping through her first race...
First time at church in her pretty Sunday dress. She was so good, and everyone loved seeing her.
First sponge bath with actual body wash. She hated it.
First nap on her belly. She's not napping in the picture, but when she fell asleep, she slept for good long time!
First time in the swing (she loved it!) followed by her first play date with her friend Addie. Sorry, I don't have any pictures of that.
Ok, so here's my first "I'm loving being a mom" story...
The other night, she had woken up for a feeding and was really mad because she was hungry and I was changing her diaper (she hates being naked). After I was done, her crying turned to whining and I scooped her up, brought her close, and just spoke to her. Suddenly she stopped whining and just looked so happy. She wasn't smiling or laughing or anything obviously, but she just looked so happy. When I think about it now, she probably just knew she was gonna get fed, but she still looked so happy to hear my voice and know I was there, which made being up in the middle of the night all worth it.
