Health: Almost immeaditily after you got home from the hospital your sisters got you sick! You were super congested for about two weeks solid. It was interesting learning to nurse with a congested baby. Thankfully you are completely over it now.
Social: You really started to wake up about two weeks after being home. You're keeping your eyes open longer and engaging more with your sisters!
Diet: Breastmilk 24/7

Clothes: You were our biggest baby yet but still fit in newborn clothing. After 2.5 weeks the chunk could not be contained so we moved you up to 0-3 month. It broke my heart to go through those newborn clothes for what could possibly be the last time!
Mama's Favorites: The newborn cuddles. I really soaked them in with you. I remember putting Maddy down a lot to engage with Mara but with you I just can't. Give me all the cuddles!
Crying: You are more demanding than all your sisters and have this high pitched cry. It's sharp and piercing. You want what you want when you want it!

Sleep: You are a great sleeper! We had two sleepless nights initally and then you were up to 4 hour stretches! We've even had a few 6 hour nights in there! A mother's dream!! We are working on getting you into a nap schedule now that you've hit one month.
This Month: We've had a slow month as we adjusted to a family of five. We celebrated Christmas and New Years. Talk about a lot of holidays in your first month of life! No worries you slept through most of it!! No visitors yet but you'll get to meet family soon!

Best of Times: You're super cuddly and we love our new little addition!
Worst of Times: The gas seems to plague you. We are constantly fighting this at night. We burp a ton, bicycle your legs and do all the other tricks to get it out.

Sister Diaries: Your sisters are in love. They dote on you especially Mara. They say good morning. Drop in to talk during tummy time and are just overly interested in what you're doing.
