7 weeks

Zeina is 7 weeks old this week. -sigh- She has grown a lot but not quite out of her newborn clothes...PPPHHHEEEWWWW! Not that I don't want her to grow up...actually I'm lying. I'm already dreading her first day of school, graduation, and her wedding!!! LOL! I can't help it. I think about it all the time. Nick is always telling me "Honey she's still a baby, look at her" lol. Oh well I guess I'll never outgrow that mentality but at least I'm enjoying her right now. Not only can I see her physically grow, I can see how she's already learning about the world around her. On the weekend, Nick makes sure he puts on Sindi Bad. It's the Arabic version of Dora the Explorer so she can get used to the language. LOL!!! He sits on the couch and bounces her on his knee and repeats all the words to her while she just stares at him. lol He' s so funny, but he's a really good daddy. :D
Well Zeina is starting to coo and she follows us around the room with her eyes and is smiling back at us when we smile at her. She is just a little doll. I can't stand it sometimes. xoxo. She is also starting to figure out how to calm herself down and put herself to sleep for naps. She is doing really well. Last night she slept 6 hours!!! I couldn't believe it. I'm sure that probably won't happen again for a while but at least we know that we are getting close. We are lucky parents for sure.
Her newborn pictures are up on the photographers blog now. You can find them here

Melissa is so sweet and did an awesome job really capturing us in a natural state and really getting the organic feel of Zeina's nursery which is exactly how I imagined it to look.  :D YAY!!!
Hope you all are having a great weekend so far, and again we will see you all soon. Until next time
