One Month Old

My sweet baby is already 1 month! It is crazy how fast the time goes. I am savoring every precious moment I have with her. She is so perfect and I love that I get to be home with her all day! I can see how some people would get bored and get a little cabin fever being at home with a newborn all day, but I absolutely love it! Being a mom is definitely the most satisfying job I have ever had.

 

She is such a good baby. She hardly ever cries-when she is hungry she doesn't cry she just grunts and grumbles and makes smacking noises and that's how you know she's ready to eat. It's so nice to wake up to those cute noises rather than a screaming baby :) She eats about every 2 hours in the day, sometimes she will go as long as 4 hours, but we try to do every 2-3. At night she will go 3.5-4.5 hours which is great! It takes us about an hour at each feeding to get her diaper changed, eat, burp and get her back to sleep. She loves bath time and going on walks. She will wiggle and squirm until she gets in the perfect position and then she can sleep like a rock. She is still in newborn clothes which I love! We switched to size 1 diapers-she can still fit in newborn but she fills her diapers so full that we switched to avoid leaks :) Her cord fell off when she was 10 days old. She likes to be swaddled if her arms are out because she sleeps with her hands above her head...just like her dad.

 

She is just the sweetest thing and we love her so much!
