Natalie 1 month update

On Wednesday, Natalie turned one month old!  She is such a blessing to our family, we are cherishing these precious early weeks with her, as they go by so fast!  She is growing like a weed!!!  She continues to be such a quiet, content, easy going little baby.... She is making eye contact with us, holds her head up briefly, and is starting to smile some.  She continues to eat every 2-3 hours during the day, and every 3-5 hours at night.  She sleeps pretty good.  She wears size 1 diapers, and 0-3 month clothes (but not for long!).  She likes to be held and snuggled, spends lots of time napping on her newborn lounger, and does great riding in the car.  We had her 1 month check-up today, and (drum roll please.....) she weighed 10 lbs 3 oz (a 2lb, 2oz gain in the past 2 weeks) and was 21 inches long (no change from 2 weeks ago).  She's a little chunky monkey =)  Here are a few pictures from the last week.

Napping on the lounger pillow... look at that belly and those chubby cheeks!  She doesn't miss a meal around here...
