1 month Evie

Evie is now 1 month old.. She is a pretty typical 1 month old baby girl. She eats and sleeps:)  Sleeps most of the day.
Nursing is still going suprisingly well, so we will see how many months I can go for the next few months.  Evie also takes a bottle well, actually prefers it, which is good for a working mom to have. We let her daddy give her about 1 bottle a day with expressed milk  We also try and losely do the eat/play/sleep routine and that seems to be working with scheduled feedings every 3 hours and and at 6 and 8  in the evening .  She isn't the best napper and will take 2 short ones between feedings but she loves her swing, just like Ben did.
Lately, she goes to bed for the night 8 or 9pm, wake to eat around 1/ 1:30 (one 5 hour stretch!)  and then 4 am and then up for day around 7ish. Not bad for 1 month in my opinion! She has some fussier days and nights where that doesn't work of course but most of the time she is good. She knows her times to eat like clockwork and will wake up ready to eat then!
She is growing big time! Some 6 month sleepers and otherwise 3 month clothes.. weighing 10 lb something.

She is slowly starting to smile...Jon hasn't witnessed it yet though! Just me:)

Only one month,, but we love her to pieces!!
