1 Month Old!!



I can't believe it, but my baby girl is 1 month old today. It has been a busy few days, with lots of ups, a few downs, and lots of firsts. I'll help everyone catch up:

-Megan is still wearing newborn size clothes and diapers, but is starting to fill them out more

-She is much more alert when she is awake and loves to look around and follow movement

-She is eating a lot more and has learned how to burp and spit up (bring on the bibs)

-Yesterday she took her first trip out of town to Madison and did really well riding in the car (the reason for the trip was an Echocardiogram that I will post about tomorrow)

-Her first outing to a restaurant went great, she slept the whole time

-For her month birthday Gram took her (and Momma) out to lunch (again, lots of sleeping)

-We went on our first shopping trip, and with Momma and Gram that is a marathon event even though we only went to 1 store

-Megan actually went to another state today (we live 20 minutes from IL)

-She had her first visit to Daddy at work

-We went to our first playgroup and were around other kids, and a dog (not sure she likes the dog)

-Wakes up once a night to eat at about 2 to 4am

-Hates getting baths, but LOVES having her feet lotioned and rubbed

-Loves to hang out in her sling while Momma gets things done

-Cannot sleep without her paci and still sleeps in her car seat/in the chair with Daddy

-She had her first Web Cam chat with Grandma and Grandpa Stormes in MI

-Took a few trips to Grams and LOVES to nap on her bed

-She took a nap in her crib for the first time

I think that's most of the firsts and high points of the last month. We have our 4 week check up with Dr. Julie tomorrow and I will post Megan's stats and Echocardiogram results then. For now I should go, someone wants some chow.
