The Orosz Family: Clare 1 month

Month 1!

Clare is 1 month old! She is actually 5 months old now, but I'm going back to finish up these monthly posts! The first month (and the next four) flew by. Clare has been a great baby!

Here are some of her 1 month highlights!

Clare likes to be held, but is okay going into her crib too. It's too loud around our house for her to snooze downstairs in the swing.
Clare is a tiny little thing and she needs some coaxing to eat longer. Her usual eating lasts around 20-25 minutes.
She had her first bath and no tears. We're getting into the bedtime routine to start getting those long stretches at night!
Visited her brother at school when we had his class birthday party - all the kids wanted to touch her uh oh!
We had several illnesses over the first month... stomach bug, pink eye, colds, and thankfully none for Clare! Healthy little lady!
She likes to hold her head up and doesn't mind practicing her tummy time.
Isn't into a pacifier, but will use it if you hold it for her. As soon as you let it go then she pops it out.
Has been a good sleeper doing the normal 3-4 hours at night time. She takes naps during the day easily too.
She likes to be cozy and have a blanket wrapped around her. I've started swaddling her with a velcro swaddle at night time.

Basically she eats and sleeps, eats and sleeps. Every day she is more alert and her smiles are starting to develop. At her 1 month appointment she looked so happy (prior to shots). Her life consists of chasing William and Grace around -- and I don't imagine that will stop anytime soon! They definitely love her and don't mind her tagging along. Next post! 2 months update! But not before some pictures from the past month below...
