4 weeks... almost a month!

WATCH OUT, DADDY IS GOING TO SQUISH YOU!


Cairo was four weeks yesterday and tomorrow she will be one month old. How time does fly. Erik and I are really noticing the changes she has made. It is amazing how one week makes such a large difference. My two favorite things that Cairo is now doing on a regular basis is cooing and smiling. Though I know what she is currently doing isn't anything close to what she will be doing in the next few months, it is still fun and, oh, so cute!


Cairo is a cuddle bug! She loves to join Erik and I in bed or on the couch. Her favorite place to fall asleep is on someone. We are working with her to have some floor time and exercise. She is getting better at hanging out on her blanket by herself for a while, kicking her feet, waving her arms, and looking around. I have her blanket right next to our sliding glass door in the family room so that she can look outside and the dogs can look in. I crack the slider door a little so that Guinness and Sienna can poke their noses in and see her. Guinness will spend a lot of time just laying there with his nose poked into the family room, staring at Cairo... I think of him like the dog Nana in Peter Pan.

Each day that goes by we are seeing Cairo's strength increase. She is VERY kinesthetic. She likes to feel things, hold things, move around, and be touched. Her hands are constantly in motion. She is now holding her head up and looking all around for a while. She likes to stand and bounce up and down... and she loves to be kissed.
