How time flies

Emily is almost 8 weeks old and I can't believe how much she is growing!
The first few weeks were a time of mutual learning...
Chad and I learnt to be parents and Emily learnt about her new world...
It has been an amazing journey so far...

Whilst newborns are very sweet... they are very limited....
they eat, sleep (if you're lucky) and mess in their nappies...
their concentration (interaction) is very limited....
but as Emily has grown, she has really started to show off her personality!!
She has also perfected a range of facial expressions & noises to help show this off!!

She still really loves to sleep:

She loves her bath with Dad in the evening:

But when she's awake and playing she really uses a wide variety of expressions.....

She likes to poke out her tongue

She likes to gaze at her Parents

But best of all are the thinking and exploring expressions:

Then there is the smiling and laughing that has recently started and is melting our hearts....
Even at 1am...when she should be sleeping.... its hard to be cross with her if she gives you a cheeky smile and a small laugh!!
