Gwen is 1 month old!Gwen is now 1 month old, which means that I have been a mom for 1 month now! Crazy as it is, I can't imagine life without her and me in any other role. I have adjusted well to the decreased sleep, although I think I am sleeping better now than when I was pregnant in the last couple months because I am not tossing and turning to get comfortable. I am really enjoying getting to know Gwen and all the amazing things she is able to do from day to day. It is unbelievable to think that just a couple months ago, she wasn't here yet and we could only day dream about what she would be like, look like, and how she would change our family. She definitely has changed our family too! Brad and I were discussing just the other night that now we truly are a family; not just a married couple.
As I slowly get back to work, I am going in for some conferences during this month but I go back full time May 5th, I am trying to take advantage of the time I have with Gwen as much as possible. Our days are spent on walks (since it is now in the low 70's here it is great walking weather), playing in the living room, looking around at everything, napping...etc. Although I am sure these times are not as eventful as those to come, it is amazing just to see her starting to focus on things, attempting to smile for a reason, and to watch how strong she is getting already. Today's big event...the bouncy seat! She discovered the toys that hang above the seat today and is mesmerized by them! Who knew a little bug could be so interesting! Who knows what tomorrow will bring, but I am certain it will be exciting!
