So this post is a little overdue, but I have a few exciting events coming up that I plan to blog about so I wanted to get these pictures uploaded. Yesterday Caroline turned 4 weeks old and I can't believe it. Time really does fly! Caroline and I are having so much fun hanging out everyday. I'm still adjusting to being a stay-at-home but learning everyday and becoming more confident. I have learned to decipher her different types of cries, how she likes to be swaddled, the best positions for breast feeding and figured out the best-fitting diapers for her little bottom! She is getting bigger everyday I feel like... her cheeks are more plump, her belly is filling out and I can tell she's gaining weight by the way she eats! So far I love being a mom to Caroline but I think one of the best things about it is watching Jay as a daddy. I'm so blessed to have Jay as my husband and Caroline is so unbelievably blessed to have him as her dad. We're in love to say the LEAST. So that's a quick update on the Thorpe family and here are more pictures of her last few weeks (including more pics from the hospital) for you to enjoy...
