Little 'Liza

....or maybe not so little. Eliza is 7 weeks old today and she is growing so fast! This morning I weighed myself and then weighed myself holding her and according to that oh so scientific way, she is somewhere between 12 and 13 lbs. That is pretty much double her birth weight since she was 6.12 when she was born. Um, yeah, I think I produce straight cream since she hasn't even tasted formula at all. She is so dang cute and I am still smitten with her, as are the boys (and dad too). She is getting a little better sleeping at night. She will usually sleep for about 5-6 hours for the first stretch and then about 3 hours from then on, which if I time it right I only have to wake up once or twice during the night to feed her which is much better than the 3+ times it used to be. I still need to get her professional pictures done, which I am planning on doing the day after her blessing which will put her at 2 months so I can get pictures of her in her blessing dress. Here are just a couple pictures that I've taken of her the last week or so. Gotta love that double chin and fat cheeks. :-)

TJ loves to hold her and give her eskimo kisses. He is such a great big brother and I love to hear him singing lullabies to her. She's lucky to have a brother like him.

We sure love our little Eliza Mirae!
