This Girl







Dagny, the smiliest newborn, has the sweetest personality already. If that's even possible. She is calm, quiet and content 99% of the time. Happiest in our arms, asleep on our chests. Mark and I call her baby hulk because she can go from perfectly still to the angriest baby in a second. By angry I mean her face gets really red and she lets out one squawk louder and bigger than her body. She rarely cries, but just grunts and wiggles till we change her position. If you try to wake her from a long nap, she wrinkles her brow, turns her head and grumbles in protest to the thought of waking up. I've had to train myself to ignore those little grumbles and grunts during the night as she works on getting comfortable. When she is awake, she is bright eyed and wiggly. She has a good two hour stretch most evenings and mornings when she's happily awake with out any needs. The other hours she's sleeping. Dagny is a great eater and usually takes in more than her tummy can bare. Our mornings are calm and cozy just the two of us while Mark is at practice. When he gets home, I rarely get to hold her.
