I'm so amazed I actually captured a cute picture of her eyes open and a little smile! I love that Leinna is smiling spontaneously and finding her voice. The other morning I just sat in her room listening to her talking in her sleep. At one point she was full out laughing! I wonder what a 5 week old baby would find so funny to dream about? Other news to report about Leinna is that she rolled over the other day. I had her laying on her stomach and before I knew it she rolled over to her back. I thought it was pure luck, so I put her back on her stomach and she did it again! Wow- just so amazed at how much she has changed already.I'm doing well. We've had a house full of guests so I really didn't get a chance to settle into what life is going to be like. Our company left this morning so we have about 2 weeks before my parents arrive. Leif plans to go into work- so it'll be interesting to see what my "new life" is going to be like. I must admit that I'm finding it difficult to not have a classroom to go to. August is usually my month where I get excited about the upcoming school year. I usually spend a couple hours in my room each day- decorating, reading files, preparing lesson plans. It's just weird after 8 years of teaching to not have a job to go prepare for. I just need to shift my thinking from wanting to prepare a classroom for the new school year to now my job is to prepare my daughter for life! That should be an easy shift in thinking? Right?!?
Well, the little peanut is sound asleep- I should get a few more things checked off the to do list before my day with her begins. Many blessings to all!!
Absolute Cuteness! Love it!
