One Month

Lily has been with us for a month now. She is a great eater and is becoming a better sleeper. Last night she was only up twice - 2:00 and 5:00. This mama was super excited. She travels well often sleeping in her car seat. She hangs out in her swing and doesn't even flinch as I vacuum around her. We spend a lot of time in the kitchen in the bouncer often staring out the window. Lily has grown quite fast and is really long; she was only able to wear her newborn size clothes for two weeks. Unfortunately, the 3 month size clothing is really wide.

Mom was here for the first two weeks, and Kevin took off of work for one, so last week was our first week together finding our routine. Only to find, we can't find a routine. It's not bad, but we are still trying to find what works, and when I can get a nap. We also still have a lot of people coming in and out. It's not bad, I love having visitors, it just makes everyday different. But Lily is a great baby and really goes with the flow (she gets it from her daddy). We are enjoying each other.

We had our first check-up appointment on Monday and she was 10 pounds 2 ounces. Mommy was a little worried about the amount that Lily was spitting up but Doc assured us it was normal and because Lily was gaining weight she was fine.

Aunt Rachel bought Lily some stickers for us to document each month of Lily's growth. Below are two of my favorites.

Our new "trick" this month is the smile so I had to give you one of my favorites.
