The good, the bad, and the cute

Here are some pictures of Margaux from this past week. Two exciting events happened this week, one good and one bad. On the good side, Margaux learned to sit up on her own this week. This means she can go from laying down to upright all on her own. We are all very happy about this. It's so cute to go in in the morning and see her sitting up in her crib waiting for us. On the bad side, Margaux face-planted this morning and hurt her mouth. It was the inside of her upper lip that was hurt- we think from the pacifier that was in her mouth when she fell over. She doesn't have any teeth, so it wasn't from biting her lip or tongue. She was bleeding and crying like crazy. After about 30 minutes the bleeding stopped and she calmed down. Prior to today, I had considered that Margaux might not have very good pain receptors because she doesn't cry when she does things that look like they would hurt. Today, we learned that her pain receptors are perfectly normal. She's fully recovered now and back to sticking everything she can find in her mouth, so no worries. I'm sure this is the first of many misadventures we will experience with our very active daughter. Hope you all are doing well!

Okay, y'll are wonderful parents. I would have freaked out and rushed Cody to the emergency room as Jeff drove like a mad man to get us there. How are y'll so seasoned? She is a cutie pie, hurt lip and all. I'm glad she is better.
