One month has zipped by faster than seems possible. People warned me that all I needed to do was to "just get through" the first 6 weeks of my baby's life. It wasn't until a ward friend told me how wonderful these first weeks were that I realized I might actually enjoy this time...and I do! I love having my little buddy with me all the time. She is such a sweetheart and I am having so much fun being her mommy. We're reading books, learning our numbers, singing primary songs in both English and Spanish, and I have never felt happier. What a blessing Raquel is in our lives!
Facts about our Little Lady
- She is now 9 lbs 9 oz and _____ in. long (I plan to measure her later.)
- Her longest hair measures 2 inches.
- When she cries, she actually says, "Wa." I may or may not have let her cry just so I could video tape this.
- She loves falling asleep to the ocean sounds on Lu's IPOD.
- Her longest sleep stretch has been 7 1/2 hrs.
- She can count up to 10 (okay, maybe this one's not true).
- Her favorite book is 5 Little Monkeys.
- Her first seemingly intentional smile was at Daddy while he was talking to her.

I can just picture you with your ruler pulling Raquel's hair to measure the longest piece!
