I came across this video yesterday taken just an hour or so after Ivy was born. We were there on my bed and my midwife had just turned on the lights for the first time to check her out, and we took her first pictures.
Just one month ago.
Why does it have to go so very fast?

Why does it have to go so very fast?
Yet, as I look at each one of my children I love who they are becoming and I have only experienced this life and this parenting thing getting better and better as time goes by.
But for now, let me rock her a little longer. I pray I can hold on to this sweet babyness as long as I can, because it certainly won't keep.

Gosh, Steph...one month already?? I can't believe how time flies!
It does go SO fast. Comin' up on 3 weeks for mine. 3 weeks?!
I love her licking her chops, like "Where's Momma!?" lol
It's so bittersweet, isn't it? You want them to grow because it's a sign of a healthy child - but at the same time, you don't want them to change at all! Wonderful that you have such early video :)
We've only have one little one so far and I've loved every stage. With the first child you don't know exactly what's ahead, so you have that to look forward. Plus, you're experiencing everything for the first time and that's amazing as well! Is it like that with each child?
She was looking for Mama! So precious! And that yelp! :) Such memories!
oh that is too sweet. I want to hold a newborn so bad!
She is so sweet, i can agree this time is going so fast
Love those sweet newbies!
I love her smacking her lips... "where is my food!?" I can't believe she's a month old. Wow.
Too precious. Time does go by way too fast. Why doest it though when I am pregnant??
Precious, just precious!
awe 2 sweet!!
Awwwwwwww. She was hungry. hee hee! What a cutie. I can't believe its been a month. Got me all teary eyed and she isn't even my baby ;)
A month? Already? It's crazy how fast time goes. I have a hard time believing my Mia will be 11 months old in a few days.
I love the video. Ivy was so beautiful and hungry ;)
She is just too precious! Those cheeks!
Every time you post something about little Ivy, it makes me more and more excited for my little chunk to arrive, yay!
A whole month!! Time does fly! Everyday, I ask God to let the moments of motherhood last a little a longer. I feel like a child about to have to stop playing--"Just one more minute!"
What a sweet, sweet baby! I love her smacking her lips. "Where's my milk!?!" Oh, enjoy that little girl. I am holding my little girl, just turned 2 1/2, as I watched your video, and I hugged her a little tighter. Thanks for sharing!
Oh my golly that video is precious!!! I love it when she hollars! SOOOO sweet!!
Oh it certainly does go fast! What a great video to have!
Wow, that was quite a screech she let out! Sounded like a velociraptor. ;)
Those cheeks are out of control!
Oh my goodness, I can't wait to hold my first little one... five weeks or (hopefully) less!
that is one cutie! Congratulations!!!
DAng.... It sure does fly...
Look at those cheeks!! I love how you guys are so sweetly cooing in the background. :)
what a sweet video!
That video was too sweet. I love hearing her do that little yell:) I can't believe she's a month old already!
So sweet--all that new-ness, all that softness--precious, precious!
Blessings!
Hold as tightly as you can Steph!! Before you can turn around she will be 8 months like my little Hayden!! Or 9 and 12 like Mari Cate and Conner!! Eeeek!!
Such a sweet video. She is so cute!!!
Woah, how did that happen? A month already? Too fast!
Wow--I cannot believe it has been a month---so precious!!
Oh my gosh what a sweet video! It just made me want to go scoop up my little one and her her even though she is fast asleep!
That video is great! And I love how alert she is!
Oh Steph, I guess I could be totally unoriginal and gasp about how it's been a month because I cannnnnot believe it.
But I'm just thinking about what you did the hour before, you know? that whole pushing a baby out of your gibblety bits, and you sound so alert and giddy. I don't think I was giddy.

That month FLEW by! I just love those little newborn nonsensical movements and jerks! So sweet - thanks for sharing!
Oh My ... I love new borns! And Ivy is soooo adorable! Thanks for sharing that precious video with us. You are right it goes too fast, my baby girl is already 4 1/2 months. And my other baby girl ... is 13 years old!!!! 13? 13!!! Hoe does that happen?
Right about the cobwebs! Keeping holding her . . . she's loving it! She is so precious indeed!
love,
Aunt Diane
faster than we can even love...
Oh, this was the greatest morning. I just can't believe I got to be a part of it. I love that yell she had, maybe she will be a cheerleader. I need a baby to rock today, so I can excuse my cobwebs. I might be over to get in some cuddle time.
Isn't that the truth. I was looking at Libby yesterday not believing that she is almost 6 weeks old! It goes way too fast. I am holding her longer and not worrying about my dirty house :)
Oh she is so precious. You cannot help but have a huge grin while watching that video clip! :)
oh my gosh, look at that delicious newbornness. I can hardly wait.
