One Month! (posted a little late...i've been busy)

It's hard to believe you have already been with us for a month! You are just gorgeous and are SO loved.

(I ordered some little onesie stickers for each month but sadly they didn't get here in time for this first one.)

Here are a few stats about you:

length: 22" (55%)
weight: 9 lbs 7 oz (30%) such a tiny little girl! long and skinny still :)
likes: you love to be walked around the house, going outside, to be snuggled and cozy, to be sung to, you LOVE to be in the bath
dislikes: wet/dirty diapers!, your darn tummy aches, you hate to be fussed with or messed with, you scream like crazy when you getting out of the bath....you can't stand to be cold (and you get chilled very easily)
sleep: Ha! I wish I could say you love to sleep at night but that's not really true. You are getting better about it though. At first, you would cry and fuss every night from 11pm-1am and would wake up every hour or so thereafter. Now, we have been able to get you to sleep on average 3 hours at a time, but you are still my little night owl and don't like to get to bed until 11 or 12. (This makes mommy very nervous about how she will be able to function when she goes back to work on Halloween!) You have surprised us a couple of times in the last week by sleeping a 4 hour stretch here and there at night. I really hope that continues. You sleep best when swaddled tightly so you don't wake yourself up when you startle.
feeding: <sigh> We are trying all kinds of things with you. Your poor little tummy has such problems and you have a very hard time pooping. This gives you such a tummy ache and you just cry miserably making mommy and daddy feel so bad for you. You are currently on both breastmilk and formula since I don't produce very much milk still. I tried to only breastfeed but you lost too much weight (15% at your first dr appt when you were just a few days old) and you got jaundice from not getting enough fluids so we had to start on the formula. We sure hope we can find a way to ease your tummy pains and get you going regularly VERY soon!
sizes: You are still wearing newborn size diapers and clothes.

Harper, you are such a blessing and a joy to us all. I am enjoying you s much while you are still so little and savoring every second I get to snuggle you. You are a little spit fire when you want to be and remind your daddy so much of me with your little temper. Haha! You know what you want and will settle for nothing less. I have a feeling you are going to be a very *fun* little girl! We love you so very much.
