Lola~ 1 month

 Lola turned a month old on April 21. We were out of town so I am a few days late but I am sure that willl be the norm with these monthly posts.

Stats:
-At two weeks, she weighed 8 lbs 9 oz. I think she weighs about 9 or 91/2 lbs from my scale at home. We don't go back to the doctor until her 2 month check up.

Sizes:
-Diapers: Size 1
-Clothes: mostly newborn but a few 0-3 month
-Bows: BIG!

Sleeping:
-She is a wonderful sleeper. She is already going long stretch at night of 6 hours. She takes random naps during the day, some short and some longer like an hour. I am hoping to really start a schedule with her in the next few weeks.

Eating:
-We had a rough start to nursing but we have worked out all those kinks. She nurses every 3 hours with a long stretch at night. She is slow eater so some feedings take close to 45 minutes.

Likes/ Dislikes:
-She is a major cuddler and loves to be held. At times it is frustrating but I am trying to soak it up since I know this phase doesn't last long.
-She loves to be swaddled and it sleeping more and more in her pack n play rather than her swing.
-She falls asleep pretty quick in the car or the stroller but is not a fan of being in either if she is not moving.
-She will show her diva side if the sun gets in her eyes. She will scream and holler if it's a bit too sunny for her.

Lola is starting to track with her eyes more which is fun. She is filling out more and is oh so cute! She still has dark blue eyes and dark hair. Her coloring is darker than her brother's and she looks more like me than Shane.



Here a few more pictures from her first month...

Lincoln is still enjoying his sister. He is not a huge fan of her when I need to nurse and will ask for me to hold him constantly until I can. He loves for her to be in the same room with him all the time and always wants to give her a paci
