Alivia is One Month Old!

I can hardly believe it's already been one month!  It seems like just yesterday we went to the hospital to meet our sweet girl.  Alivia is already showing us how different she is from her sister.  She eats differently, sleeps differently, and acts differently. 
At 1 Month:
* weighs 7 pounds 10 ounces... this is not as much as her pediatrician would like her to weigh, so we're working on helping Livi gain weight.  She eats like a champ, just spits lots of it back up!
 * wears newborn size clothes and diapers... I'm excited for her to grow so she can wear some of the cute outfits we have in 0-3 month sizes! 


* has deep blue eyes and she's just starting to really look at you when you hold her.  She'll look at you intently as you talk or sing to her and you can tell she loves to listen!
* sleeps for 4 hours stretches at night.  Mommy wishes they were 5 or 6 hour stretches, but 4 hours is better than 3! 

* loves to be sung to... especially if her sister is the singer... if Livi is crying and Arabella starts to sing to her, Livi stops crying.  It's amazing!
  * loves to be outside and go for walks in the carrier.  We've been lucky to have beautiful weather lately and Alivia and I have been taking full advantage of it. 
 
God has truly blessed us with our sweet Alivia Jean.
