1 month old

Why oh why does time have to go by so fast? I can't believe she is already a month old. I go back to work next week and I'm so not looking forward to it. I wish I had more time to spend...doing nothing really :) It's been great to be lazy. I feel guilty because these last 5 weeks Nate will come home from work and nothing has been done. House not cleaned, no dinner, kids still in their pajamas...me still in my pajamas. So, it actually will be nice to be able to get some stuff done and actually get dressed for the day :)

Jenna has been the fussiest baby of them all. She is driving me nuts. She has to be held or she is crying. During the night....I'm either holding the binky in her mouth for her or feeding her...not sure what she wants, but if she'll eat to keep her quiet, I'll do it. She did sleep through the night last night for the first time. It was amazing! I can't remember what a full nights sleep feels like, it's been months! She is still a joy and so fun to have. The kids just love her. Karston I think seems the one that is most enamored by her. He always has to tell me when she is awake. When she is crying he is the first one to put the binky in her mouth. He asks me all the time when I am going to get skinny again. Uh...rude? haha. I just have to laugh about it. One day honey....one day. Here are a few pictures of her 1 month mark.

I'm sorry for crying baby nights. That can certainly drain the energy!! She is so stinkin cute and I'm sure it will only get better. That's awesome that you got to sleep thru the night at least once!

She is just the sweetest thing ever. I'm so sorry about the fussiness, Kate was very fussy so I can understand how hard that is. Hopefully it will change soon!

I can't believe that she is already a month old either. Your family is adorable too. Next time we come to Utah we will have to meet your whole family. Hope Tyson is doing well. Have a Very Merry Christmas!

what a pretty girl! i'm right there with you on the no sleep thing. geez! our little girl has slept through the night since 1 month - but our little boy... now he is another story! we are tired, tired, tired! haha. so i feel for you! as for going back to work - i wish i was as strong as you! i just can't do it... tried for a few days and instead of getting 6 hours in a day like they wanted, i only got in 1.5 hours. i guess in a nutshell that means "i suck." haha. well, good luck my friend! i'm glad we have blogs to keep in touch. :)

You are skinny! I love children's comments. You are a trooper-4 kids. I don't think I'd ever get out of my pajamas again :)
She's so sweet. Thanks for letting us come invade your house to see her. She's so cute.
