one month check..



okay, so ella is really five weeks, two days old..but still... we went to her one month check today and just like we hoped, our little girl has been a growin...
6lbs, 13.5oz -- 20in long, to be exact :)
she is in the 2nd percentile for her weight, 7th percentile for her height, and 13th percentile for her head size (yeah, shes gonna be a smart one with a brain like that)...ella no longer fits her in preemie clothes and has now moved up to newborns...so its been fun putting all those clothes on her now :)

our little baby girl has also discovered that she has hands and is constantly staring at them -- and last night she played with her toys until she fell asleep, which was around an hour, it was so freaking cute to watch...she is now looking all around when you hold her and makes the cutest little faces and noises i have ever seen or heard -- her signature look is when she sticks her tongue out and she loves giggling in her sleep...





its been great getting to know her -- and both jon and i are super excited to see what the coming months hold for us :)

...next week's events....
1)she meets her uncle travis for the first time

2)has her hip ultrasound cause she was breech

3)first thanksgiving -- and gets to meet a ton of lowell family members she has yet to meet
4)meets grandma and grandpa haymen
5)family photos


as you can see -- its gonna be an eventful week...pictures to follow...
