A Daddy & his Girl

this just about stops my heart!  it's like the scene in The Grinch when his heart grows exponentially when he sees all the whoos in whooville singing.  Watching David with M just about makes my heart jump out of my chest.  So in love with him.  So in love with my little girl.  So in love with motherhood.

Magnolia had a dr's appointment Monday.  Me & her both cried our eyes out when she got her shots.  She is doing wonderfully -- 95th percentile in weight! (13lbs 13oz at 11weeks old!).  She's got great neck control.  Smiles all the time.  She got the giggle for about 5 minutes straight about 2 weeks ago... but as hard as we try, we can't get her to do it again.  

Right now she is still sleeping in the bassinet in our bedroom, but doc said because she is so big that she would probably benefit from and enjoy a thicker mattress.  The plan is to move her to her crib/room when we get back from California at the end of the month... but this mom is gonna miss having her so close at night!

Daddy bathes her every night around 10:30pm and she LOVES it!!  So fun to watch her splish and splash.  Right after bath she eats and then... wait for it... sleeps for 7 - 8.25 hours!  She's been sleeping like this for the past few weeks!!

Basically, I'm pretty spoiled!  I've already totally forgotten all my pregnancy woes -- somebody remind me quick before Magnolia ends up with a little brother or sister before she is 1!  :)
