Time flies when you're sleep deprived

I realized when I was going through my last batch of photos that it has been a while (as in weeks) since I have really taken any pictures of Charlotte. I can't believe she is already 5 1/2 weeks old...it feels like it's been 2 days! I attribute part of that to sleep deprivation though. Every day just rolls into the next and I've been so busy that I haven't stopped to count the days, or do much of anything outside of the daily routine. I have enjoyed keeping Charlotte home, away from the world and in doing so have kept myself largely away from the world as well. I have decided that it's time for my "maternity leave" to end though so starting next week I have vowed that life will get back to normal...or as close to a version of normal as we're capable of around here... :)











Charlotte is growing fast and getting so big. She is also experiencing classic male-patterned baldness. She has gone almost completely bald on top and it's starting down the sides but has TONS of hair left in the back. I have been tempted to cut her hair more than once, but can't quite part with it, no matter how uneven it is. She has also started smiling and interacting a little bit which is always rewarding. I look forward to continue to watch her grow and develop. I love my boys, but I am having so much fun with my little girl!
