One month...












How can it be that my little Katie-bug is already ONE MONTH OLD??? Oh, time flies. She is SUCH a good baby (not that the other two weren't... but she is pretty awesome).
Here is Katie's daily routine in a nutshell:
Feeding: She eats at approximately 4 hour intervals during the day: 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 7pm, 9:30pm (we cluster around bedtime - some days we start about 30 minutes earlier). She will usually wake at 2:40am for her ONLY middle of the night feeding. I typically have to wake her for feedings - otherwise she'd be content to sleep longer!
Napping: Including feeding time, she is typically awake for 1 hour before going down for a long snooze. She naps great, except after the 7pm feeding. She doesn't know WHAT to do after that one - nap? play? so she settles on crying a whole bunch! She is a great nighttime sleeper - we put her down at 10pm, she wakes briefly to eat (or snack, as it has been lately) at 2:40am, then we must wake her to start her day by 8am!
Playing: Her brothers want her to play. They constantly ask when they can get her toys, etc. out for her. I patiently explain (AGAIN) that she is can't play yet...
She enjoys all the different "seats" in the house (high chair, bouncy - usually without vibrations, activity mat, our laps, etc). She always looks around with amazement - how did I get here?!?!
