Better late than never, right?? Maria turned one month on Feb. 6th! As you can see from the picture, we will be using Tigger for our monthly comparison! I love how she is looking at Tigger in this picture! So what is Miss Maria up to?
*Maria is in size one diapers now...no more new born diapers for us!
*She is in newborn clothes...but moving into the 0-3 month outfits she has. I think I am in denial that she is already outgrowing some things!
*At her one month check up on the 7th: weight: 10 pound 6 ounces (75th percentile) We have quite the chunker! Height: 21 1/2 inches (58th percentile) The doctor said she was just perfect! She is super healthy and everything looks great! :-)
*Maria has a stuffy nose like her brother did. I am constantly using saline and an aspirator to clear out her nose! The doctor said this is normal, and to keep up with this...just part of who she is! Poor thing! To help with this we invested in a powered aspirator! SOOO much easier and quicker than using the manual one! What normally takes minutes to pull out of her nose, now takes seconds!!
*Maria holds her head up on her own already!! She is very strong! She also will push off and try to "stand" for a few seconds!
*She loves music...especially from her glowworm and the swing.
*She loves the vibrating on the swing!
*She eats every 3 hours during the day and demand feeds at night.
*At night she typically sleeps from 10/1030-230/330, eats and sleeps again until 7! I LOVE that she usually only wakes up once a night! :-)
*She sleeps for about 45 minutes to an hour and a half in between feedings throughout the day!
*She smiles in her sleep ALOT...she also snores!
Maria is a super sweet baby and we have loved having her in our lives! She is very sweet and rarely cries! Simply put...a wonderful joy!!!
How is big brother??
Big brother is adapting quite nicely. He loves on Maria often, with an occasional pinch or slap from time to time. He did scratch her face this past week. She will be one tough cookie with Greg as her brother! He gives her kisses all of the time. When I have them in the bath together, he likes to help wash her hair. He is very sweet with her, but still very possessive when he knows it's his time with Mommy!
