It is truly mind boggling to me just how fast twelve weeks has gone by. Mariah is now 11 weeks and 2 days old, and I am grieving because I know that I must now return to work. I know that it will not be easy to leave her, but with much prayer and strength, I am sure that she and I will both adjust to the change.
Mariah has hit two milestones. She will now take a pacifier, which she adamantly opposed in her early weeks and now loves.
And she actually fell asleep on her own for the first time on Wednesday October 8th—her 11 week birthday and yesterday--twice. But you must note that the pacifier played a huge part :-)
This past Monday, October 6th, Mariah received her specially made crib set by a family friend, and as you can see below, she really enjoyed it…
THANKS BRENDA!!!
I took Mariah to my firm yesterday so that she can see where mommy works and to meet my colleagues and co-workers. She did VERY WELL!!! I was so proud of her. Isn't she cute???
The infamous lip (which I must catch on camera one of these days) reared itself on several occasions, which was the sign of an imminent cry, but she handled the dozens of foreign faces like a big girl. Mommy loves you Mariah...
Wave to your family and friends...
