Daisy is one month old!

Tomorrow, my gorgeous baby daughter is one month old. You might be wondering why I’ve not posted much about her here, well, since she was born, but that’s because she has her own (private) website for friends and family. I’m not keen on posting lots of pictures and information about her in a public space like this for obvious reasons – not least because she already appears to have attracted an unwanted stalker. Anyway.

It’s amazing how the month has passed not only incredibly quickly, but also somehow incredibly slowly. It seems like years since she was born, and yet she is growing and changing so fast that time seems to just vanish before we’ve had a chance to take it all in.

I was looking over the photos we’ve been taking of her yesterday – loads every day – and she looks so different to when she was first born already. Her head is less cone shaped, her eyes are a little paler in colour, her cheeks and chin more defined, and her belly is enormous. I keep telling her she’s fat, but apparently it’s wrong to do that. She even fits her clothes now, without looking lost in them!

She acts differently too. She can focus on stuff now (providing it’s pretty close to her face), and is starting to react better to toys, noises and the TV (we had a great time watching Space Pirates the other night). She’s also more relaxed, crying less and sleeping at night better.

Everyone says that they grow up so fast, but you don’t realise just how fast until you see it with your own eyes. She’ll be at school before we know it, at this rate.
