Today Bennett Grace is 4 weeks old! I can't believe how fast time has
gone by and how much she has grown over the last 4 weeks. It really hit me
yesterday when I was deciding whether or not to buy another pack of
newborn diapers or move her up to size 1s*. I know that sounds silly but
when she was born even the newborns swallowed her and now she is filling
them out. There is just something about demonstrable proof that she is
indeed growing up that is bittersweet. I'm so thankful she is healthy and growing the
way she should but it is also sad to think of how quickly time goes by
and how you never get these moments back. It also comes with the
realization that I am half way through my maternity leave and in exactly
4 short weeks I will be apart from her. I hope that I will be able to
take some comfort in the fact that she will be staying with her Mimi
(Sean's mom) during her summer break. For now, I plan to enjoy the
upcoming days and steal as much of her sugars as I can :)
Here are a few pictures from her first four weeks with us showing how much she has changed. I can't wait to see what the future holds for our little family!

*Just in case you were wondering the size 1s were HUGE. We would have for sure had a diaper situation for sure!!
She's such a doll-baby. She gets more and more beautiful everyday.
