As we know, time just flies when there's a new baby around. Somehow, Catherine is 1 month old today! Unbelievable!
Here's what we know about this little lady so far:
-Catherine loves to sleep most of the time, but is often wide awake from 9pm until 12:30am. However, the last 2 nights, this hasn't been the case. I'm hoping that means she has figured out her nights and days, but not banking on it quite yet.
-She's still not much of a cryer. Her needs are pretty easily met--she squeals when she wants to eat, needs help falling asleep, or is working on dropping a deuce. That's about it.
-She better get used to being teased by her brothers. Matthew absolutely LOVES mocking her cry. It's pretty hilarious.
-So far, she happily takes a bottle. I am really hoping this continues!
-We are getting some smiles here and there, but I'm pretty sure they aren't intentional. Hopefully that will change in the next few weeks--I'm a total sucker for those baby smiles!
-She's completely done with being swaddled and now sleeps in a normal blanket sleeper with her arms free.
-While doing tummy time last night, Catherine rolled over. I assume it's a total fluke, but it was really cute to see her do it.
I have been on my own to manage the kids for 2 weeks now and I think we may be getting used to things (hope I don't jinx myself). We are still getting meals delivered from friends a few days a week, which has been so helpful. It's been such a blessing to slowly ease back into things and we are so thankful for all the help we've had.
Ok, and the fun part--pictures!!

Lots of time is spent doing this. I'm obsessed with baby snuggles. |
|
Catherine's usually the last one sleeping in the morning. I usually bring her into bed for her last feeding of the night. |

Baby Burrito--before she rejected the swaddle. |
