Betty - 1 Month

It's hard to believe that Betty is a month old!  At the same time, it's hard to imagine life without her.  We all love Betty and are really enjoying having her in our family.  Here's what she's up to:

-She still has her signature 4 or 5 a-choo sneeze.  It's pretty intense.  It's also pretty cute.

-Such a sleepy little girl!  I feel like it's really been in just the past week that her feeding times have come up to what I feel comfortable with (12-17 minutes total per feeding vs. 3-5 minutes in the first week).  She's definitely growing, so that is what's important!

-She loves baths.  The warm water just puts her in this blissful, calm state.

-Has a sweet and super sad little cry. We hardly ever hear it.  Really, it's just reserved for times of hunger and unintentionally pokey displays of affection by a big sister who is just bursting with love for this little one.

-Sleeps 4-5 hour stretches at night.

-Such a LOUD sleeper.  Grunting, moaning, and more recently a choking/coughing/scream/cry sound. Sad.  By this age, we'd kicked Clara out into her own room... but with the room sharing plan, we're still trying to figure out what the best option is.

-I can tell she's a content little soul, but sometimes she seems pretty uncomfortable in that little body.  Poor thing!

We love you, darling Betty!
