Olivia- 1 Month

Dear Livvy,

How can you be a month old already? It seems like just yesterday we brought you home from the hospital. I can't even imagine that you were in my belly. It's crazy!

We had some rough spots those first few days at home, but the more I'm getting to know you, the more I'm falling in love with you. I love how when you hear my voice you look for me, even if I'm across the room. It melts my heart. You are the sweetest little girl and such a good baby. You are perfectly content the majority of the time. I'm really starting to get the hang of things and I'm starting to enjoy the little moments with you. I have to admit though, I can still get uptight when it comes to things having to do with you. I just want everything perfect for you. I'm learning that I'm doing my best and that's all that matters. It's so cliche, but I never thought I could love someone as much as I love you Livvy.

Things you are doing at 1 month:

You love seeing the world around you. You hate tummy time, but when you are up on our shoulder you love lifting your head and looking around. In fact, since you've been born you have been awesome at holding your head up. It won't be long until you can do it all the time.

I love watching you sleep. You look so peaceful and I feel like all is right in our little world.

You hate having your diaper changed. It's one of the only things that makes you cry.

You have definitely found your lungs in the last week. You used to just fuss quietly, but you found your voice and you use it. Luckily for us, very few things upset you.

After a few baths that caused you to cry, you are really starting to enjoy bath time. The only time you cried with your last bath is when we took you out!

You are on the verge of outgrowing your newborn clothes. That makes me so sad! I can't believe you are on your way to 0-3 months full time!

You HATE being burped. Absolutely hate it.

Your puppy dogs are so in love with you, especially Bailey. Bailey is so protective of you. He growled at your Oma and Papa if they were walking anywhere that you were. You on the other hand, are a little unsure about those puppies. You hate their cold noses and kisses, but they love giving them to you.

You love sticking your hands in your mouth. It's just your thing.

It's so amazing to watch you grow and learn my sweet girl.
