{1 Month Old}

One Month Old 
In her first month H has grown 2 inches (she is now 21 1/2 inches long) and gained 1lb 4oz (she was 7lbs 7oz at her 1 month checkup).

Things she likes:
  • snuggles with mommy and daddy - or anyone that will snuggle her, really
  • sleeping with mom - much to mom's dismay
  • her sucky - sometimes, unless it's the times where it makes her gag
  • her bounce chair - she JUST decided she likes this today!! 
  • her snuggli - because it means she doesn't get put down
  • eating - now that we found good bottles/formula
  • storytime in the rocking chair
Things she doesn't like:
  • her swing
  • her sucky - sometimes, unless it's the times where she does like it
  • sleeping in her own bed - ever
  • being put down - ever
  • her carseat - unless she's sleeping, then it's ok
  • ovol - gas or not, she will not swallow it
  • boobs - at least not mine, sigh
  • loud noises - like gunshots and her dad cursing at the TV
  • cold hands - I have reeeally bad circulation, I'm sorry baby!
This month has flown by so quickly (and yes, I know a month was 3 days ago but I'm a little behind) I don't even know where the time has gone. Christmas was fabulous, and H got SO spoiled. I did too, actually. We had nice visits with all the family but I am so glad it's over! Next year is going to be so much fun as she will be old enough to rip open her presents and laugh and smile... oh, speaking of smiles... we know how to do that now.. I caught the tail end of it on camera on the 27th. Just 1 day over a month old - enjoy! 

God she's cute! 

I'll try to post more frequently from now on - I know I've said that before and I swear I mean to do it every time.. but this time I mean it!

{Baby H Has Arrived!}

November 26th, 2010 at 12:48am, our lives changed forever. 
Baby H was born nearly 3 weeks early but is perfect in every way.
She's itty bitty, weighing in at only 6lbs 3 oz and 19 1/2 inches long. 
I now believe in love at first sight.
