Our sweet Charlotte turned 1 month old on October 25th! It is so hard to believe that it has been a month already! Here is what you have done this month:
- The first few weeks you were sleeping most of the day. We even called the doctor to see if you were sleeping too much! That changed after about 3 weeks of being home. Now you are awake and alert about 6 hours a day.
- You are still sleeping in our room in the pack ‘n play. We enjoy you being so close to us at night but you are a very loud sleeper…you grunt, groan and stretch so loudly!
- You eat about every 2-3 hours. At night we can set our clock by you…3 hours on the dot! You are nursing every feeding except for the 3:00am feeding where daddy gives you a bottle of formula. (Mommy really appreciates this!)
- When we first brought you home we wondered if you would ever cry, since you did so so infrequently. Boy, you proved us wrong! You have some lungs and like to use them.
- You really enjoy sitting and sleeping in your bouncy chair. We are so glad we have that thing…one of the best purchases ever!
- When you left the hospital you weighed 5lbs 11oz and at 2 weeks old you weight was 6 lbs 5 oz. At 4 weeks old you were 7lbs 7 oz. so you are growing very well.
- You are still in newborn clothes and we love the cute footsie pajamas!
We are so blessed by you sweet girl and we thank God often for our healthy beautiful little girl! We look forward to watching you grow and seeing what the next month holds in store for you!
You looked a lot like your brother at 1 month old…you guys could have been twins!
