1 month with our Babe

Baby L just turned one month old on the 11th and its safe to say that we are still trying to figure her out, but I feel like this week she gaining a little bit of a routine so its getting better.  Baby L has put on a lot of weight which isn't from all the Christmas treats haha but just a better eating schedule and eating more.  I've had to already start packing away clothes that she is out-growing (in length, she is getting long).  She makes hilarious faces at me and Daniel, usually at night or early morning.  She still has this funny sound she makes when she sneezes that makes me giggle every time.  She has a very loud cry (scream) when hungry and food is taking to long.  We've established her hunger cry as apposed to the dirty diaper cry, and also her I'm bored or this place cry. She loves tummy time.  Since adding formula to her feedings she is only getting up about 2 times in the night.  We're usually up for a 3rd time right before Daddy leaves for work, which I like because then we get to send him off with baby kisses.  L is gradually liking her bouncer as long as she is in a happy mood to begin with.  She is kind of the opposite of most babies in that she really likes noise.  She sleeps at any gathering of people and has snoozed through church just like an experienced high priest haha.  It surprises me just because our house is very quiet all day and night.  Most people comment how shes always asleep, well the key is become quiet and you'll probably see those beautiful blue eyes of hers.  I'm pretty sure shes went through 200+ diapers since coming home, which I never expected to go through so many.   We just love her and her little personality.  I've commented to Daniel that although getting up with her in the night isn't fun, and sometimes shes been naughty you can't help but love her in the morning because she's just so darn cute.  Best Christmas/birthday/anniversary/v-day gift after Daniel of course I've ever received, I'm sure Daniel will agree as well.
