1 month


Chubby legs
And arms...

My baby girl is 1 month old (on July 22)

1 month stats :

weight : 12 lbs 10 oz (105%!) the doc said she is the average size of a 4 month old
height: 22 inches 90%
head circumference: 15 inches 75 %

* she is a rather good sleeper at night giving me at least one 4-6 hour stretch
* during the day she fights sleeping and wants to be rocked/held for like an hour... which is not possible when taking care of a 21 month old, so we are letting her cry to sleep and it is working about 50% of the time. It is kind of exhausting but we will keep working at it and I am just grateful that she sleeps at night
*she does not like her swing... seriously what baby doesn't like a swing! argh
*she gave me her first smile at around 3 weeks... and we randomly get (real) smiles every now and again

That's about all my squishy baby does so far! We love her very much :)

What a cutie! I love those chubby arms! :) Sounds like her and June are a lot alike...when June was a baby (ha ha - like under 3 1/2 months) she would only fall asleep if I held her and she HATED her swing too!

Chubby babies are the cutest! I'm glad to hear you're surviving with 2 little ones because I'm still scared to death of the thought.
