Amazing how fast time passes when you have two little ones! Lily is a month old today, and she is beginning to do more than just sleep and eat (and cry).
Well, she still spends most of the day sleeping. She's tried out her crib, the swing, and the bassinet. I think the bassinet might actually be her favorite. She tries to get out of the swaddle, but it ultimately calms her down. So far she is not a big fan of the binky. She does very well at night (much to our relief), waking up only one or two times to eat.
Lily has gained over 2 pounds and has grown 2 inches! Believe it or not, she has Ava beat at one month. She has been a pro at nursing since birth. She eats about 8 times a day. Ava always takes a front row seat for feedings. She's already trying to breastfeed her dolls. So funny! We've tried giving Lily a bottle, but she's a breast girl.
Lily and Ava get along famously. We're soaking this up now, because we know it is only a matter of time for them to start arguing over clothes and phone privilages. Lily turns her head to hear Ava's voice. Ava loves when Lily comes to wake her up. As for Aaron and I, we are getting used to having a newborn again. It's been an adjustment, but there is nothing more fulfilling than raising our family together!
