Writing about all the big & little things

1 Month old! (well, actually 5.5 weeks old now…)

Guess who’s growing like a champ?

That’s right–our little Maddie girl!  We weighed her on our scale the other day and she’s over 11 pounds now.  She is also smiling AT people once in a while now.   It’s so fun to see her starting to track things with her eyes and notice people.  She’s not quite sleeping through the night yet, but she’s stretching the middle of the night feeding longer and longer.  I’m hopeful it will only be another week or two.  She’s also eating between 3.5 and 5.5 ounces now.  Yikes!  Now wonder she’s growing so well, eh?  But I checked back and compared our other kids and that’s about what they were eating too, so it’s normal (for us).

She has baby acne pretty bad, although it’s been getting better over the past week.  I don’t remember the other two having it quite so bad.  It clears up on its own over time, so I just need to be patient.

You can see the acne spread onto her neck and shoulders

Also, she LOVES sleeping outside.  If we’re having a rough day, all I need to do is go for a walk and she instantly falls asleep.  I think it’s because it’s so warm outside.
