But who wants to hear about that when there's THIS little dumpling to focus on?? Josephine also checked out beautifully, weighing in an ounce shy of 12 pounds! Since her lowest weight was 7, 13 oz, she has put on over 4 pounds in just over 5 weeks. Our midwife didn't have a percentile chart to show us, so I don't know where she falls, but I get the impression she's a sizable baby. With her cloth diapers on, she wears some BIG clothes-- even the occasional 9 month size.
Josephine? chubby? nooooo....
Tummy time is TOUGH business when you're carrying 90% of your weight in your face...
The cheeks do make for some pretty cute grins though. Here she is with my dad on their last trip down over Mother's Day weekend.
I was trying to catch her smiling for her one-month snapshot-- it took a couple of tries to get a good one. Here are some pictures from my favorite little photo shoot. They're a bit squirrelly but we finally got a good one at the end.
And for your ultimate personal enjoyment, check out Bo Peep! Now do you blame me for being totally uninterested in exercise? Who wants to discuss [much less, do] exercise when you can turn your child into a personal comedy show?? Check out those little angel wings coming off the shoulder straps! And her expression is so trusting... like, "You're laughing WITH me, right, Mom? Right?" Poor little baby. I assured her I wouldn't do that to her again. At least not for a couple days.

awwwww... i want to squeeze her!
Oh my gosh -- those cheeks! I love them! Wow. I really think she looks like a good mix of you and Sean. I can see both of you in her, for sure. What a cutie!
And exercise? Who needs exercise? Although, I have to say that I do love my walks. I need the sunshine.
awww, those cheeks are so precious.
Are you even kidding me with that Bo Peep getup? Nuh-UH! Awesome. She'll forgive you someday, don't worry. Ah ha!
I always love your posts and I know what you mean about exercising- and I didn't even have a baby! I am motivated even more by your post-freakin-a you look great already, Jenny! Woo hoo for working out! Love the uphills as much as the down, this is good advice I have received and it keeps me going sometimes. Love the challenge. I know you've totally got it in you, just to find it and make it happen. You've got my support, if you've got my back too! =0)
This is too funny. I'm glad you're having fun at the expense of your first born. I'm kicking myself because I though that I was a follower of your blog but you were taking a hiatus because of newborn-land. Now I have a lot of catching up to do! Something to look forward to.
What is this thing you call exercise??? :) Going on our walk next week will help me remember! and I'll get to squeeze those cute chubby cheeks of hers!!!
