Can you believe to Molly is now ONE MONTH OLD? Jake and I took Molly to her one month pediatrician appointment last Thursday and she weighed in at 9 lbs. 14.5 ounces! Molly is a good eater and sleeps well once she is off to sleep. However, Molly seems to be a bit of night owl and it takes awhile to get her to nod off. There have a been a few nights when we have passed Molly around and she did not get to nap much, on these nights she has been pretty fussy. My best friend James was here recently and he bonded with both Molly and Oscar.
On the pediatrician's suggestion we are trying to get Molly some "tummy time" everyday and for the most part she enjoys just falling asleep! She is tracking toys now, is very interested in the ceiling fan and is building her neck strength. Recently, Molly and I started a yoga class for new moms and she slept through the whole first session. Hopefully she will get to interact with some of the other newborns (at least as much as newborns are capable of interacting) at some of the classes.
The jury is still as to what color Molly's hair will be. In some places it appears brown, in others it is more blonde and her eyebrows may even have a slight hint of strawberry blonde in it. As of now, her eyes are a gray/blue but we won't know their final color for some time.
We have gotten so many great gifts and Molly is now growing into some of the cute clothing that we have received! Thank you all for the lovely gifts and well wishes they mean so much to Jake, Molly and I! I am working on the birth announcements and, with Molly's cooperation, I hope to have them out by the end of the week.

Cute pictures! James looks right at home holding her :) I was reading Jakes blog as well (hope he doesn't mind) and was thinking she could have a slight case of reflux - if holding her on her left side doesn't help you may want to ask your ped about it. Very cute little girl!
She is such a doll! And Oscar looks like such a good helper!
