4 weeks

Baby Girl is 4 weeks old today. That is CRAZY! I almost spelled it with a K, not sure why. Krazy! :) Katie is getting so big & so heavy. I was sure she'd be over 7lbs today but nope. And I just knew she'd be like 20 inches but also nope. 6 lbs 9 oz & 19 inches long. She gained 1 lb & 1/4 inch in 2 weeks. She's eating like a rockstar which is frustrating at times aka frequent night feedings. I miss my sleep! Being a mom is exhausting work I tell ya. She goes through way more diapers than "average". 10-12 my butt! :) It's all good though. Do I feel like a mom? Nope! I don't know if it's because this is all so natural for me & I'm not getting that "I don't know what I'm doing" new mom feeling. I know what I'm doing because I've grown up around babies & I've wanted one since before we got married. I definitely never got that "afraid I'll break her" feeling some moms get. Anywho, Motherhood is good! I love being a mom, even if sometimes I feel like the babysitter. She's a REALLY good baby & hardly ever cries. Even when she does it's rarely loud. She does have her lungs & she can use them but usually she doesn't use them to their full potential. :) Anyways, I guess that's all for now. I'll leave you with a picture.
