1 month old

 I have had a very busy first month! I made great friends at BayFront Baby Place where I was born. The nurses there were amazing at taking care of me and informing Mommy and Daddy what to do once home. :)  Then, Grandmama and Aunt Emmie came down to help. We had a lot of fun going out to lunch, shopping, church, and my new school- Keswick. Grandpa Scott, Josie (Grandma Marsha), Aunt Mo, Uncle Justin, and Aunt Allison also came by. Big brother Bentley also warmed up to me. He likes to lick my toes now! I love my new family!!! Throughout the next few weeks many people came to visit me from Keswick and from my church at 5th ABC. They brought Mommy and Daddy dinners because I was busy taking up all their spare time. So far I have 2 new friends my age... Chloe and Lilly. I bet we will grow up and be best friends forever!!! They both have brown hair just like me.

Some things I have accomplished for the first time this month are... 
bath
smile
beach trip
eating 4 oz.
trying to hold my head up
overcoming a cold and thrush

Below are some things that I have really enjoyed so far. These things have also helped Mommy and Daddy take care of me better in my first month of life! If you are a new or expecting Mommy, you should really look into getting these items for your newborn too! 
The Whole Boppy. This is great for tummy time!

Playtex Vent Aire. This is all I use!

Pampers Swaddlers have a yellow line that turns blue when wet.

Simply Saline Baby is for when I have a stuffy nose.

Fisher Price swing for $69.99 at Target is a life saver!

My pretty in pink tub with basket netting. Perfect for bubble baths!

    Heads up

    Not a whole lot to write about this week. Laila had a good week. She is up to drinking 4oz now. She also is starting to hold her head up more now. She goes tomorrow to her one month appointment to get a shot so we will see how big she has gotten then too. Pray she will not be to fussy after her shot. Here are some cute pics from this week in the life of Laila.

    Bath time after a major blowout! lol Daddy filled the tub up so full for her bubble bath!

    This is what we do to pass time once Daddy is gone to work. :)
