Month One

 Well my bright eyed little girl, the first month has flown by. You are so cute, full of life and personality. We started out in a good rhythm of eating and sleeping and then about week three you decided that life is just way too exciting, and you don't sleep anymore. You enjoy your little catnaps, and somedays it feels like you don't even take those. You love to eat and we have managed to get you from formula and bottles in the hospital, to bottles of breastmilk, to breastfeeding. Yay. Now if only we could get you to take a soother occasionally, because it feels like that hollow leg is never full!
 You love to see what's going on and what everyone is up to. You love your swing like your sister, and it needs to be going full tilt, just like her. You fall asleep pretty quick in the car, like other babies you love the movement.
 Your little chicken legs are filling in very nicely. You went from 5 lbs 8 oz, when we left the hospital, to back to your birth weight in 3 days. In two weeks, you were up to 6lbs 9oz! Wow. Then your first month check up had you at 7lb10oz! Wow! I am sure you are over 8lbs at this point. You don't fit into your premie clothes anymore! Yay. You will be in all those cute outfits everyone has gotten us before we know it!
You are so loved by everyone. Especially your big sister, who can't leave your side. She needs to know what you are up to every minute of the day! When you actually do sleep, she wants to wake you up just to see you awake! lol. She's not the only one, we all love you so much. Mom would love it if you slept a little more. You are too cute for words, so it's ok. Who needs sleep?
Happy one month my little bug. We love you.
