Mylee's a Month Old Already

So...what has Mylee been up to this past month? She's been growing a ton...there is no doubt about that. I don't know where my little baby has gone. It's amazing how quickly they grow and change. She is almost out of size 1 diapers and 0-3 month onesies already. Other than growing she has been doing the typical baby things...eating, sleeping, peeing and pooping. She takes after Maddy in the pooping category...a lot of blow outs up her back, up the front, or out the side...makes for a lot of stain cleaning and laundry. She has had a bit of a cold now for almost two weeks with mucous in her nose or the back of her throat that we can't seem to get out. Her right eye has been green and crusty too, but I think it is a plugged tear duct. Her yucky fingernails have finally cleared up. She had a rough week or so a few back now where she wanted to cluster feed from 9 to midnight. It was pretty frustrating to say the least, but she is doing better now. She usually goes down to bed about 10 after some good fussing and then is up between 2/3 and then again at about 6. Sometimes she is wide-eyed and up for good for a few hours and other days she'll go back down for another few hours. She isn't on much of a routine yet during the day but has a few stretches were she is alert for a few hours. She is a bit high maintanence...wanting to be held a lot when she is awake. She prefers to be up over your shoulder...in fact, she prefers being on her stomach so we let her nap on us or on the floor during the day on her stomach.

We started her on the bottle at 4 weeks. She is taking a bottle a few times a day and then before bed just to start working that in there. She does pretty good although seems much gasier afterwards and spitting up a bit more. Other than that, we've seen a few smiles out of her but nothing regular at this point. We are having a lot of fun with the girls and managing to get some sleep, so there are no complaints here. I love my family!
