I'm five weeks old (and I was officialy one month last week)


Hi this is Larsen, and this is my first post. I was planning to do a post last Friday when I turned one month old but we were traveling so I didn't have the time. Today I am actually five weeks old. My mom says it has gone by in a flash, except when it is 3am and I want to play and she wants to sleep. Here are some fun facts about me now that I have crossed into 1 month land:

Eating: Well I still enjoy my mama milk about every 2 hours. Occasionally I stretch it to three, but all the time I need to have a snack every hour. I had my first bottle about 10 days or so ago. I am not sure I like the bottles, but I am a hungry girl so I did drink some of it. I just tend to be a little slow. My parents really hope I will take a bottle better than my brother did. Apparently is was pretty stressful that he didn't like it AT ALL. That also meant he ate a lot at night once my mom when back to work and well that made for a very tired Mommy. She is hoping I will sleep through the night sooner than Bridger did (19 months). Speaking of sleeping...

Sleeping: I don't have any sort of schedule. Some nights I do really well and only get up every 2-2.5 hours, but many nights I decide I am hungry every hour after about 1am. I also much prefer to sleep on somebody or in my parents' bed. We are working on getting me to sleep in in my own bed. Maybe I will like my crib better than the bassinet. Right now I am getting up too much to sleep in my crib because I share a bedroom with my big brother and he needs his sleep too.

Other stuff: Mommy thinks I smiled at her yesterday and a few days ago Daddy thought so too. Yesterday I was wide awake, looked at her and gave a sweet little smile. I haven't done it since. Maybe in a few days. I also have done a few responsive coos but they are also few and far between. I still prefer to be looking around or sleeping. However, I am having more awake time so it might not be long now. Nobody knows how much I weigh since I haven't been to the doctor in about 3 weeks. However, I am starting to fit into all of my three month clothes, and I am in size 1 diapers so no doubt I am still growing!
