Seven Week Update

We hosted a barbecue on Schuyler's seven week birthday Our good friends came for the weekend and we had a great time The last week with Schuyler was not the easiest as she was the most fussy she has ever been She started the week with some really bad nasal congestion which made her neurotic mother believe she had a cold We sat on the side of the tub while I ran hot water to help clear out her nose and calm her down Mission accomplished until I opened the bathroom door and the steam went billowing down the hallway All the upstairs smoke alarms started going off along with Ms Schuyler's little alarm! Of course, I couldn't reach the alarms so I had to run downstairs to get a chair from the kitchen

This week, thankfully, has started off much better She is much more content and having some really alert periods She seems to be really enjoying the Vacation Bible School songs that I sing to her and she is really getting into tummy time I'm attaching a quick video of a recent head turn Hopefully, I can get a good one of her holding her head up today It is most impressive!

This is my last week of maternity leave so I'm hoping we can make the most of it I am both looking forward and dreading my return to work The good news is that my mom will be here on Saturday and will be helping us transition Schuyler is looking forward to her grandma's arrival!
