One Month

I can't believe Griffin is actually 6 weeks old as I'm writing this!  I knew this time would go by quickly, but I wasn't prepared for how quickly.  I'm just trying my best to stay in the moment and soak in this time with our baby girl.

 

We decided to follow the trend and take monthly photos of Griffin to document her growth over her first year of life.  I'm so glad that we'll have these pictures to look back on and remember this special time in all of our lives. 

 

We're thinking that Griffin is going through a growth spurt as we speak.  She's generally a pretty easy baby, but has been a bit cranky today and very hungry - two major signs of a growth spurt. 

 

So, it looks like our plans for today consist of rocking our sweet (somewhat cranky) baby, watching the Dallas game, and thanking God that she is healthy and growing.



Griffin Helen

Griffin Helen Bailey was born on August 22, 2013 at 2:56pm (much earlier in the day than we had anticipated).  The second I laid my eyes on her chubby cheeks was the best moment of my life.  It was love at first sight. 

 

A few things about our little love...

 

She weighed 7 lbs. 5 oz. when she was born and was 20 inches long.

 

She is very alert and has been since day one.

 

She was born with a full head of dark hair.

 

She loves to be held and rocked.

 

She found her smile (my favorite smile in the world).

 

She has her Daddy's chin.

 

She loves the Baby Bjorn, but doesn't care for her car seat.
