Keira Addyson - 1 Month


Keira is 1 month old...so crazy to think she's been here so long already! I'm actually kind of relieved...the first month of Dylan's life was rough and I remember it getting better once we reached this point, so part of me thinks we dodged a seriously bullet and it should be smooth sailing here on out...hopefully she doesn't have other plans in mind :-/

Keira has had such a good month! She's hardly fussy and only seems to cry when she's hungry or way past tired. She eats very well and naps for 2-3 hours, 3 or 4 times a day. At night she is sleeping in 4-5 hour stretches and she'll go right back to sleep once she's fed...amazing! It seems as soon as we got home she knew the difference between day/night. Unfortunately she snores like her daddy. She has great head control and can tolerate tummy time for up to 10 minutes now. She also has more wake times so we're able to take her out and play with her more. Her eyes go back and forth between blue and green, but I think they'll be green like Keith and Dylan. She has started smiling and vocalizing some ("ooh...ahh"), and she loves staring at her big brother when he tries playing with her.

I have about a week and a half left at home with her and that makes me sad. But I'm so thankful I had this time to bond with her and care for her. She'll start daycare on April 22nd and I know she'll be in great hands with Ms. Nancy. And after that, it's just a few more weeks before we'll have all summer to play! She's still sleeping in our room and we're hoping to have her upstairs in her room by the time I go back to work...wish us luck! Or, wish me luck!
