On July 18th, our sweet Andie turned one month already.
And she is growing so fast (slow down sweet girl!).
We celebrated with a special little cake.
Andie at one month of age:
(I'm grateful for these posts because I do look back at Quinn's, and they help me fill in the baby book if I don't get to it right away.)
Stats: 9 pounds, 21 inches long - basically 50th% for everything
Eating: Breastfeeding like a little rockstar still. Growing and getting a little chubby, so it makes this mama feel good. :) Eats about every 2-2 1/2 hours during the day. Drinks between 3-3 1/2 ounces (can tell when drinking a pumped bottle. Or nurses for about 20 minutes on average.
Sleeping: Usually falls asleep for nighttime at about 8:30pm. Does a 5-6 hours stretch first then does a 3-4 hour stretch. After that her regular every 2 hours schedule begins. Such a good sleeper. Still sleeping in mommy and daddy's room in the Rock N' Play.
Clothing: Wearing all newborn clothes still comfortably. A few newborn onesies are getting a little snug length wise. In diapers, starting to transition from newborns into size 1.
Loves: This girl is a little particular about where she is. :) She loves to be in our arms, on her playmat, in my (diy) moby wrap, and in the Rock N' Play. Andie does really well with a bath and loves when you just talk to her.
Milestones: We see little smiles in her sleep and tiny smirks when we talk to her, but we are waiting for that first big smile that is right at us. :) Rolling over and such a strong girl.
Andie Qualities: Another little grunter baby! Only I think Andie is way more vocal than Quinn was. Her noises crack us up. She saves all the best expressions for when I feed her. She is sweet and calm, yet will definitely let you know she is hungry! And that is often. :)
Most Valuable baby items: Rock N' Play, wrap, good swaddle blankets
We didn't have to buy much new with you little chickee, except for a new vehicle. This past week we sold Daddy's yellow truck and we went out and bought a new mini-van (Toyota Sienna). We love it! It is making life so much easier getting you and your sister in and out of it and to and from places. Thankfully you are starting to like your carseat a little more too.
