6 weeks

It's hard to believe that baby sister is 6 weeks old today. Time sure is flying!!!
We saw the doctor this week because I thought she had a rash, it turns out she just has really bad baby acne. It's driving me crazy b/c it's everywhere! Poor baby.
At 6 weeks she weighs 11 lbs and is 22 1/4 inches long. She's our big girl. Our oldest is very tall, so baby sister's height does not surprise me. Though I keep wondering how we make such big babies. lol I call her my little chunk! :)

I had a photoshoot with her at 4 weeks, this is one of my favorites :)


Sister love


My 6 week old

This was one of the first outfits I bought her.. LOVE it and love her in purple.

1 month

It's hard to believe that my baby girl is 1 month old today. It is flying by, and I always say this, but it's bittersweet. It's so different to have a second child. It's fun to enjoy her and watch my firstborn enjoy her. She loves her little sister so much, it is amazing to watch them. It'll be a really fun experience to watch them grow together.

At 1 month, baby sister is not on a consistant schedule. Some days I feel like a novice at the baby thing, I don't remember the hardships from my first baby. lol Baby sister eats anywhere every 2-3 hours, which has made it difficult to set her on a schedule. At nights she's been all over the place. I don't wake her up, so she has nights where she'll wake up every 4 hours, others every 2, sometimes she'll sleep 5 hours, eat, then not wake up again till morning.. So it's been hard. My goal for next week is to start getting her on a schedule, I will spend the next few days trying to see if she can go 3 hours during the day. We've been successful at keeping her awake after each feeding, she'll stay up anywhere from 30 minutes to over an hour. A few nights ago I was talking to her and she talked back for the first time, it was so cute. It was just sweet coos, but of course I completely melted. lol


At 1 month, Baby sister:
weighs 10 lbs (birth weight was 7.15)
is in size 1 diapers, which she started wearing at 3 weeks mainly b/c we ran out of nb and had a box of 1's at home. lol
is outgrowing nb clothes
likes to be rocked to sleep
loves her swing
loves her mama's arms :)

I LOVE this picture of me w/ my girls.

I have set a goal of taking pictures of the girls daily :) It is not always easy and I have yet to take a picture of the 2 of them that I absolutely love. B/t the energetic toddler and the sleepy newborn, it's impossible to get a good shot. But I will keep trying!
