One Month

Madison was one month old yesterday June 11th. It has been a fabulous month. We have lost much sleep, but it has been worth it. We can't believe that she is already one month old. Madison is getting bigger, but is still very tiny. Almost 2 weeks ago we went to the doctor and Madison weighed 4lbs 11oz. We think Madison is just barely over 5 lbs now though. Yesterday I weighed myself and then held Madison and weighed again and according to the scale she weighs 5lbs 2oz. Mat also did it too and got the same weight. I don't know how accurate that really is, but she is gaining weight and we are excited about that. Newborn clothes are still too big for her, but she wears them anyway. Madison is eating every 3 hours and eats 2 ounces per feeding and she is staying awake longer during the day which has been fun. Madison still has pretty blue eyes and lots of dark hair. Madison does not scream during bath time which is good, but does sometimes pee which is fun. Madison loves to be sung too and loves getting her legs and feet rubbed with lotion. We still are hanging out at home mostly, but we are able to take her for walks and she sleeps the whole time so we think she likes it. Most of all Madison loves to be held by her Daddy and Mommy. 

Here are a few pictures of what we have been up to lately:

 

 Madison and Mommy's first stroller ride. We go on walks mostly in the mornings a few days a week.

Madison's first time hanging out at the park.

Madison being a big girl in the bouncer. She only likes it for a little bit, but is getting used to it more and more.

Madison spending some time on her tummy. She does not like it and tries hard to roll over. She will be rolling over before we know it. Her muscles are getting stronger and stronger.

Madison meeting her cousin Emma. Emma is her cousin that is the closest in age. Emma is 4 months older. Madison has a long way to go to catch up to her cousin, but they will be good friends soon enough.

Madison being patient while Daddy takes random funny pictures.

Madison getting wrapped up tight by her daddy. We use to call Madison a little burrito, but now that she straightens her legs more she is like a little egg roll now instead.

Madison being tired.

Madison spends lots of time sleeping.

Madison spends some of her time crying, but not very much.

Here are a bunch of one month pictures of Madison. We took hundreds of pictures and it was so hard to choose which ones to post. Madison was a real trooper and did a fabulous job at her photo shoot.

We are enjoying our time with Madison tremendously. We can't imagine life without her and know she is suppose to be in our family. She is perfect!
