Where has the time gone?!

I'm such a slacker! Its been almost a whole month since my last post. Sorry for the lack of updates.

We are all doing really well. Gabriella is 6 1/2 weeks old. I can't believe it. She is getting so big. We were at the pedi's a week ago and she was 10 lbs 10 oz and I guarantee that she's 11 lbs by now. The girl LOVES to eat. She takes 4 oz every feeding and sometimes even wants more. She's becoming more and more alert each day and I love her so much. She just started really smiling the other day and totally melted my heart. I can't wait to capture it on camera.

The lack of updates was really due to the fact that my mom was here with me for 3 weeks and I didn't want to spend any extended amount of time on the comp. It was such a wonderful time. I was such a wreck when she left the other day. I pretty much cried all day. I miss her so much and so does Gabriella; I just know it.

Now its back to just us and our days are filled with singing and playing on the playmat, spit up, explosive poop and all sorts of other fun stuff. Poor Leo even got spit up on the other day! I went for my 6 week post partum check up the other day and all is well with me. Although the doc told me I couldn't go on the pill or do an IUD since I'm EPing (exclusively pumping), I'm going to ask about the mini pill.

We have our 2 month check up on 8/5 and I can't wait to see how big she'll be by then.

Here's my precious girl 2 days ago:
