5 weeks

Nellie, 5 weeks old

I can't believe 5 weeks ago yesterday our sweet little Nellie joined our family. I seriously love her so much. It is crazy how much love you can have for your kids. Nothing they do can make you love them less. I feel so blessed to have her in my life. 

Nellie is starting (i think) to try to smile awake. Today she looked like she was trying so hard and i'd get these little half smiles, they were so sweet. She is also the strongest little 5 week old that i know! She holds her head up like a champ. If i hold just her hands she'll stand up and hold her head up, its so cute, i've got to get a picture, but i'm going to need some help from John for that. 

Its been a good five weeks, lots of sleepless nights but lots of tender mercies. I just feel so blessed. 

I'm so glad Jack too loves his little sister
