The first few days... miracles every second

so things are going great!!

She's a great great eater and honestly the only "pain" with breastfeeding is the initial latches each time.. for about 3o seconds it hurts till she gets the flow going well and then it's just fine. You can breathe through it with no issue. I now look like Lara Croft from Tomb Raider but no one is really complaining there!

She sleeps like a CHAMP! at night when we're all in bed together she sleeps a good solid 3 hours, then eats for about 45 mins or so again and then is out for another 4 hours. So we both get really good sleep for which I'm really grateful. She LOVES to snuggle, and LOVES kisses which I have never seen a newborn like. Usually they turn their faces away or kinda flail their hands to avoid them.. not her. She just will let you kiss her till the cows come home. OH! and we have a freaking awesome update...

ready?

SHE SMILES!!! no lie, when she's happy she smiles. Not the gassy "grimace smile" but a legitimate smile. When she's looking in our eyes or just finished eating she'll look at us with a big grin. It is amazing! I've heard of babies doing that as early as a month... but only 3 days?!! We are so so so lucky.

She also LOVES her daddy time and the sunbaths they take together (to keep from getting jaundice). She will just look at him for hours and plays with his hands and just is so content. The dogs of course thinks that the sunbaths are cuddle time for them too so they jump on the bed and cuddle with them too which I think is adorabe. Rogue has decided that Auroras safety is her new job so she has decided that the title "bodygaurd" is hers. lol, it's so funny she'll watch anyone who gets close to her other than us like a hawk!

All the animals have been GREAT with her too. Kida (the cat) oddly enough doesn't seem to interested in her. She used to love cuddling on my tummy and Aurora never kicked her (odd right?) but now that she's out Kida doesn't seem to care at all. Storm just thinks she's cool and loves to sniff her all the time.

I am so crazily in love with this little person it's literally indescribable. and she is just waking up and I think hungry so I'm gonna go! more pics to come!!
