How has it already been a month? (Well over a month now because I’m late on this post.) Laikyn has changed so much since we have brought her into our world and she has also changed our lives! We can’t imagine what life would be without her! How thankful we are that God chose us to be this baby’s parents!
We’ve had lots of ups and downs and learned SO much from her and this experience already! She’s grown and grown us as parents, too.
Just like pregnancy, I am going to keep up with her monthly progress! (Try to, at least!)
Age :: one month
Length :: 21 inches
Weight :: 8 lb 8 oz
Milestones :: first smile in sleep – 5 days old, first smile awake-2 weeks, focusing on objects, responding to voices and music, holding head up for 1 minute, lots of coos, has a great set of lungs (wahhhhhhhh!!!), kicks feet and wiggles in swing and bouncer
Sleep :: slept through the night at 12 days old and still sleeping through the night. The night we put her in the Rock n Play, which has an incline, she started sleeping 5-7 hour stretches! Yay!
Favorites :: being swaddled by daddy, music, being danced around, being sang to, tummy time, being outside, showers with mommy or daddy and bath time, noise
Doesn’t like :: being left alone-she likes to have someone close all of the time, having her diaper changed, a pacifier when she’s hungry, wearing clothes (and it’s a shame because she has a crap ton in her closet!!), being cold
I’m getting a one month favorite post together of all of our favorite products we’ve used for the month! It’s a whole lot harder to blog when you’ve got a sweet baby to keep you company! 🙂
Here are some pics from her first month!
First trip to the dr’s office!
First walk/ride in her stroller
In love with these baby blue eyes!!
