One Month



Today Lyla is one month old!

At one month Lyla:



-Loves to sleep. I realize that this could all change, but for now Lyla likes to sleep. She sleeps a lot during the day (Olivia calls her a sleepyhead) and she has done 7 hour stretches at night. :)

-Loves to eat. At her last doctor's appointment, the doctor told us that Lyla has gained 2 pounds in the last 2 weeks, pushing her into the 97% for weight and size 3-6 months clothes.

-Loves baths. She has liked to take a bath from her very first sponge bath.

-Lyla is VERY calm. Matt was concerned that she never cries and wanted me to talk to the doctor about it. Lyla didn't even mind getting a shot while she was in the hospital.

-Lyla smiles. Yesterday she gave me her first real smile. I like to think that she was smiling because she was enjoying my singing of "Pop goes the weasel" while bouncing her on my knee; however, it may have been the lamp (she absolutely loves) which was directly behind me that prompted the smile.

-Lyla is very noisy. She is the loudest grunter, and has mastered many unusual animal noises.
