Marjorie at One Month

I took these pictures on Marjorie's one month birthday, but of course didn't get around to downloading them, editing them, and uploading them here until now. Because everything takes longer with an infant.

At one month Marjorie:

-is a pretty good night time sleeper. I always get at least one 4+ hour sleep and then a 2-3 hour sleep
-consistently wakes up with gas/pooping needs between 6 and 6:30 regardless of when she last ate. A little frustrating for all parties involved
-does not like napping during the day. She will stay up hours despite my best efforts to prevent her from becoming overstimulated and going into crazy baby mode
-loves gripe water (as do mom and dad). Baby gas is the worst!
-started with a few social smiles around 3-4 weeks. One of which was directed at her pediatrician so it's legit : )
-doing well with feeding (would eat every single hour if she could) and keeps on growing

At one month Mommy:

-is finally not in pain with breastfeeding
-is happy with the night time sleeping, not so happy with lack of day time sleeping
-starting to feel a little bit more like a person again, but definitely trying to figure out who this new mommy person is
-loves the little froggy cuddles but could do without the high pitched screaming cries
-not quite so scared to go out an about with baby thanks to Glamee's guidance 
-kept a baby alive for an entire month!!! Super proud of that one!
