One week milestones...

So after I posted yesterday, Miss Molly decided she wanted to hold her head up and turn it to look at us while we were talking! I couldn't believe it! She had her eyes wide open and was just taking everything in. It was too funny! I was in the middle of trying to burp her when it happened. She is becoming so expressive and starting to have personality. I look forward to what she will be like in the future. Just wanted to get this recorded on here before I forgot or got too busy!!!

Happy One Week Birthday Molly!!!

Today Molly is one week old! It is so hard to believe that it has been a whole week since she entered our lives. I feel so blessed to have such a sweet, precious, beautiful little one. She is truly a joy- even through the sleepless night, dirty diapers, and fussy moments (which don't come very often). Molly is starting to become more expressive as time goes on and is generally a really good baby. She doesn't really cry unless she is hungry or dirty. Right now we are working on staying awake for feedings. Molly wants to fall asleep half way through her bottle and then wake up an hour or so later and want more. We are trying everything! Hopefully she will grow out of this stage... Anyway, I know I need to post her birth story and I will soon along with some photos!

Welcome!!!

Molly Claire Davis was born at 1:55pm on April 20th. She weighed 6lb. 15oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long. I will post more later with pics and the entire story. She is doing GREAT!

15 days to go... or not

Well, we have 15 days to go until the due date, but I am PRAYING it will not go much longer. As of Tuesday, I was 1.5 cm dilated and her head was so low the doctor could feel it. YAY!!! I know I could stay that way for a while, but hopefully not. I would love to have an Easter Baby, but at this point I would just settle for Spring Break. I know I should enjoy being pregnant and our last few days/weeks as a couple before baby, but I am just so anxious to meet our little girl. Don't get me wrong, I have totally enjoyed spending time with Tim during my time off work, but we are both so excited about meeting Molly. Daily I think about who she will look like, what color hair and eyes she will have, what her temperament will be like. I am not one who does well with suspense, so I am surprised I have held it together this long! I am starting to get very uncomfortable. My pants are cutting into my stomach (where the maternity panel and pants material meet) so I have resorted to sweatpants and gauchos whenever possible. My back hurts so bad at times I could cry, so I am wondering if that means I will have back labor. I have tried to prepare myself for all of this, but I don't think ANYTHING could ever prepare you for labor or motherhood. I know all this will be worth it when she gets here, so come on Molly! Momma and Daddy are ready to meet you!

Hopefully the next post will be a welcome one!
