Here are Cooper & Ella at 1 month old! They are just growing so fast & are really blossoming! It is incredible watching them grow & learn...you can just see their little eyes light up when they see & hear new things! They are just as cute as can be! Love them so much!
Ella - One Month
- You are our chill baby. Most of the time, when not hungry or tired, you love to just sit back, relax and look around. You don't have much of a temper and we can tell you are so sweet.
- You love to sit and cuddle too, but you often prefer to wiggle & stretch.You are quite the stretcher...before every bottle feeding we at least have to give you a good 5-10 minutes to stretch and wake up :)
- You getthe hiccups and sneezes SO often. The hiccups don't seem to annoy you though.
- You are right about 8lbs. You were 6lbs14oz at birth.
- You are eating every 3 hours during the day and we are working on night stretches. Right now, about 9pm, 2am and 6am is what we are close to. Then 9am starting the day routine over again.
- Right now, your bottle at 9pm before we put you down for bed. You take about 4.0 ounces right now. You are sleeping until about 2am, most of the time your brother decides that he is hungry so you eat then as well. Giving you a bottle is always an adventure, HA! You love to stretch & grunt throughout the entire feeding and you will not eat until you are ready! You definitely eat on your own terms ;)
- You are sleeping in your rock n play in mommy & daddy's room in order to help reduce reflux. We will move you to the nursery to sleep in your crib soon :)
- You love to be swaddled. I think it makes you feel all snug & cozy!
- You don't mind bath time but it is definitley not your favorite part of the day :)
- You do pretty good at tummy time, but so far, you mostly rather just relax on your tummy than work.
- You are starting to grin at us and it's so sweet.
- It is easy to determine your cry.
- You are ticklish on your sides & your feet.
- It's funny but sad when you try to potty after feeding. If it doesn't go your way, you clench your fists and squish up your face.
- You are starting to coo some.
- You grin when we talk & sing with you. It's pretty cute.
- You've been pretty wide-eyed since you were born. You have pretty eyes and you like to look around. We can tell that you already follow daddy and I when we move.
- You hate to have your nose suctioned. Is there a baby that doesn't?
- You get really red when you are mad.
- You like looking at your brother. We can tell you love her very much (either that or just trying to figure out who exactly that is laying beside you! Ha!)
Cooper - One Month
- You are our firecracker! We knew this pretty early on as you have quite the loud, high pitched squeal, haha. You are a bit impatient, but we don't mind. We've just learned to move quick!
- You keep us laughing...we've already determined you are going to be quite funny!
- The only times you get ticked is when you get your diaper changed & bath time. You just aren't a fan.
- You have tinkled on us and we just forgot to be prepared.
- You are a good eater, but still the smaller babe (not by much at all). You love your bottle! You love your bottle and every time it is time to eat, you act like you haven't eaten in weeks. We typically have to take breaks while you are eating because you get going too fast and spit up. While you are waiting your are moving your arms in a robot motion and smacking your lips as if you are telling us, "I want more!" ha ha!
- You are weigh about 8lbs. You were 6lbs14oz at birth.
- You are eating every 3 hours during the day and we are working on night stretches. Right now, about 9pm, 2am and 6am is what we are close to. Then 9am starting the day routine over again.
- Right now, your bottle at 9pm before we put you down for bed. You take about 4.0 ounces right now. You are almost sleeping until about 2am, but not quite.
- I think you have a little bit of reflux as you spit up some after almost every feeding. Actually, I wouldn't say every . Maybe every other. We try to burp you extra good after your bottle so hopefully you spit up before getting into bed.
- You have spit up in bed, not to mention all over your sister! Makes mommy nervous.
- You have such sweet eyes and love looking around (especially out of the window). You didn't open them much the first week or two, but that has changed quite a bit.
- You are sleeping in your rock n play in mommy & daddy's room in order to help reduce reflux. We will move you to the nursery to sleep in your crib soon :)
- You don't really like being swaddled, most of the time it annoys you and you want/try to break free. We can hear you grunting and squirmming around like crazy!
- You are starting to coo some.
- You do pretty good at tummy time, you work really hard at it so you also whine throughout.
- You were raising your head strongly very early on.
- You grin when we talk & sing with you. It's pretty cute.
- It is easy to determine your cry. It's completely different than your sisters.
- You hate to have your nose suctioned. Is there a baby that doesn't?
- You get really red when you are mad.
- You like looking at your sister. We can tell you love her very much (either that or just trying to figure out who exactly that is laying beside you! Ha!)
