Hallie turned 1 month old yesterday. I've been thinking that I've been a horrible mother, cause I've hardly taken any pictures of her since her birth. So I turned the front room into a studio and have taken picture overload the last couple days. But before we get to the overload of pictures, here are a few things about Hallie at 1 month. She has been a pretty good little baby so far. She is still sleeping really well. (Knock on wood.) She is usually down for the night between 10 and 11, up sometime in the 4 o'clock hour and then not again until sometime between 6 and 8. She has more and more awake times during the day, and is starting to develop a better routine to her sleeping patterns. Hallie's weight was finally up at our last weight check. She was 8 lbs. 4 oz. Still not quite back up to birth weight, but at least she's gaining. We have to continue the supplementing so that she keeps gaining weight and not maintaining. My milk supply isn't very much right now either. They want me to breastfeed, then bottle feed, and then pump. It's just gotten to be too much, especially with Grant's needs and Mikkele's busy schedule. So I am breastfeeding a few times a day, and bottle feeding the other times, and no pumping. Maybe if life slows down a bit I can try pumping to get my milk supply up again, but for right now I'm ok with what we are doing. She hasn't really loved car rides and bath time so much yet, but she is starting to come around a bit. It helps if she has a full belly before both. Jeremy was holding her yesterday and got a smile out of her. Maybe it was just gas, but it made him pretty happy. It was a pretty good Father's Day present for him from his baby girl. She hasn't done it again yet, but I'm sure it's not too far off that she'll be doing it all the time. Now on to the overload of pictures. ENJOY!
A little mischevious pose
She looks thoughful in this one.
Sorry Aunt Lisha...I peed on the cute blanket you made for me. 
These last two were taken before church yesterday. I think she looks like she's winking in the last one.

She is a doll! I love the pink bow! Did you make it?
The bow is almost bigger than Hallie ... cute pictures from the Gallier studio!
Lara-
I didn't make this bow, a friend did. But we have made a ton that just have the flower, not the toole. We loved the idea of adding the toole though, that we're gonna go and get some to add to some of the flowers we've already made. Super easy tough.
Hey April, can we come visit your studio? I haven't had Bella's pictures taken since she was 9 mos. old! Now that's a bad mom!
Hallie is so gorgeous and I love the bow!
She is toooo cute!! I love her mischievous pose. She's adorable.
What a gorgeous little girl! Congrats to all the Galliers.
So freaking cute!
Oh my gosh April! I didn't even realize you had her yet... she's so cute!!! How fun :)
