Well, we have a one month old in our house now - that is 4 weeks of cuddles, middle of the night feedings, loads and loads of laundry and probably a thousand cups of coffee. It's funny how it has only been 4 weeks but I don't remember a time when Olive wasn't a part of our family but at the same time it seems like just yesterday I was spending hours bouncing on a yoga ball and speed walking through our neighborhood to help induce labor.
We are getting into the swing of things, and I have had a couple outings with just the girls including Target and Costco (I will be accepting my gold medal any day now.)
I started babywise with Olive last week, and she already has the schedule down. I love the concept of the eat, play, sleep cycles. she takes 4 naps during the day and has her bedtime feeding at 7:00, we put her to bed (or cuddle her until she falls asleep). I feed her again between 9:30 and 10:00 before I go to bed and for the last few nights she wakes up just once between 2-4 to eat again (and goes right back to sleep) and than wakes up to start her day at 6:30 or 7:00. We did babywise with Scarlett and I SWEAR that is why she is and always has been such a great sleeper.
Olive just started smiling and it is one of the sweetest things ever, I'm excited to experience "firsts" with her. She loves to eat and is a nursing pro already.
Scarlett loves her and is either trying to nurse her or is smothering her in kisses (or pinching her nose)
and here are a couple more pictures
