Sarah's First Month.

Wow! Sarah's a month old, and I can't seem to figure out where the last month has gone! She is getting bigger by the day!It seems like days are so much shorter now that she is here!

Sarah wakes up around 7 every morning and is ready to eat. She loves her baba! She's eating 3 ounces at a time now. After she eats at 7, she is awake for a little while and then falls back to sleep. She usually sleeps long enough for me to get a few things done, like taking a shower. Until you've been a mother you really don't realize how GREAT showers really are! I had a good friend tell me to make sure I got a shower every day because it was actually make me feel human again. I make sure to get one! That was some of the best advice I got before Sarah was born. She eats every two hours during the day. She takes small "cat" naps through out the day, and goes to bed by 9pm. We are trying our best to get her on a schedule.

Some of the things she really enjoys are:
-Swinging in her swing.
-Being Swaddled.
-Riding in the car.

Some things she still doesn't like:
-Diaper Changes
-Being Alone.
-Not being held.

She has discovered a new skill, it's called playing opossum. Just when you think she's really asleep, and you go to put her down in her crib, she's awake again!

She's beginning to giggle in her sleep and sometimes while she's awake. She gives the biggest smiles while shes asleep too!

Happy One Month Sarah Clarke! Mommy & Daddy love you!

  1. Ah, the shower. So important! Glad you're taking that time for yourself every day :) If she doesn't take to a schedule right now, that's OK! Typically they don't take to a schedule until 5-6 months. Until then you're just on their schedule ;) Happy 1 month, Sarah! Enjoy every moment - it FLIES!
