I can't believe I'm already saying this, but Happy 1 month sweet Kylie!  You turned 1 month on Wednesday. I'm not ready for you to grow up as fast as you have been.  You already don't feel like a newborn, and this week we've realized you have just about outgrown your newborn clothes.  We're trading out your NB clothes for your 0-3 month clothes within the next couple days.  Your sister fit her NB clothes for 3 months, so you have already surpassed her growth rate!

You are such a joy to have in our family.  And, to be honest, it doesn't feel like we've ever been without you.  You fit so well, and your sister adores you!  One of her favorite things to do is lay right beside you while I change both of your diapers.  You LOVE to reach over and touch her, and she giggles every time.  That's definitely one of my favorite things to see!  She's your #1 fan, always running to give you a binky if you make the slightest fuss, she hushes your daddy if she thinks he's talking too loud when you're sleeping, and she loves to help me pick you up out of your bed.  I'm so glad you two are already the sweetest friends.

Speaking of your bed...you are not a big fan of your bassinet, so daddy fashioned a quaint little bed using your bathtub...and you sleep SO well in it!  A parent's gotta do what a parent's gotta do to get some sleep. :)  One day maybe you'll forgive us, haha.  Probably not until you have kids of your own and are willing to do whatever it takes to get some shut-eye.

You are the sweetest babe.  You only cry when you're hungry or tired.  You love to watch mommy and daddy walk around the room when you're awake...for some reason that's entertaining to you.  Since you were 2 weeks old you've been a champ and will sleep for a good 5 hours most nights..  LOVE that about you!

I can go on and on about how much we love you Kylie bug.  Thank you for coming to our little family and making us a little more complete.  I can't wait to see what the future days and months bring.  I'm excited to see what discoveries you'll make and how much you'll grow.

We are in love all over again.  Life with a newborn and a toddler certainly isn't easy, but at the same time it's been so so fun.  We have loved seeing Emma be an amazing big sister...and we were definitely missing having a baby around to snuggle.  Best of both worlds.  Now, if we can just get a good night's rest, just one night, we'd be golden.

Jamison and I had Emma's name picked out before we ever knew we were going to have a baby girl back in 2011.  This time around, we had a name picked out, but decided against it soon after finding out we were having a girl.  We had the hardest time narrowing it down.  I liked Mia, but Jay wasn't a huge fan of it being the first name, but he couldn't come up with any other names either.  Finally, about 2 months before Kylie was born, we sat down and wrote down our top 5, and came up with Kylie Mia.  Jamison picked out Kylie, and I picked Mia.  It's the perfect fit, and we are loving on our little lady bug.
