Stella, you are one month old today.  You went from being happy and content to being put down to sleep to wanting to be held while you sleep.  It's made getting things done around the house a bit harder.  Now that you're over 8 pounds, we've started using the Moby Brenda and CJ got us.  That has helped a bit.  It's hard to get you into the right spot that you're comfy all the time, but we're practicing it.

We let Emma hold you for the first time today.  Now that you're a bit bigger and more stable, Dad and I felt more comfortable with that.  You love listening to her.  She'll talk to you while you lay on your rainforest play mat.  She uses a high, squeaky voice that annoys me, but you seem enthralled with it.  That usually buys me 20 minutes or so while I'm trying to make dinner.
