Mia Oh My!!

Well this motherhood thing is amazing and amazingly hard! Of course I expected the late night feedings, no sleep, and a million other things to drive me crazy but what I didn't expect was the jaundice and now the Dr is sending us to a pediatric cardiologist because they think she might have a heart murmur. When the last At Home nurse came by she said she heard a murmur so our pediatrician's office called us and asked us to come in and have the Dr double check. Heart murmurs are common in newborns but the Dr thought the murmur was not in the area where they normally hear it in a newborn. So Mia has her 3rd Dr's appt in less than 2 weeks tomorrow. I'm sure everything will be ok (a lot of people have heart murmurs and live perfectly healthy lives) but whew. Welcome to motherhood I guess. I love every minute of it and wouldn't trade it for the world. She really is a sweet baby and I love being her mom!



This is girl is pretty in pink, brown, blue, yellow... ok you get my drift!


Mia's super cute cherry dress from Sherstine is one of the only things that actually fits her right now!


Every once in awhile we get lucky and Mia smiles and giggles in her sleep "baby zen" state as I call it.

Don't worry I only let her sleep on her side for a second. She would sleep that way all the time if I let her I think.
