Delaney Lou - One Month Old Already

Our sweet little Delaney Lou was one month old on the 17th. The time went by so fast and it seems like only yesterday we were waiting to meet her. We are all so in love and smitten with our little "chunky monkey."





All About Delaney Lou...

She went for her one month checkup on November 24th and weighed 8 pounds 14 ounces and was 21 inches long.
She loves being held by her mommy or anyone else that wants a snuggle.
She knows her daddy's voice and looks for him when he talks.
She loves her YaYa who has been named the baby whisperer.
She loves kisses from Ashton and gets tons of them.
She smiles :)
She eats every 2-3 hours with the exception of night time.
She sleeps a ton...even during the night. We normally go to bed around 10:30 or 11:00, she wakes up sometime between 2:00 and 3:00 and then sleeps again until it's time to wake up for the day. This is so different from her sisters and I am very thankful!
She is still so tiny even though she gained 2 pounds in one month.
She wears newborn diapers.
She still wears newborn clothes, but her long legs are making some pants too short. 0-3 month is way too big though.
Her hair is brown with a touch of red in the sun and her eyes are still blue.
She REALLY dislikes having her clothes changed and she's not really into her bath yet either.
She likes being in the car seat, but only if it's in the car and the car is moving. I dread red lights!
She will take the pacifier occasionally, but most of the time acts like she is being gagged. And she is already searching for her thumb.
She has been to basketball games for her YaYa, to MOPS meetings, to birthday parties and on a road trip to Jacksonville to see her great grandma.
She is happy and a go with the flow baby.

There are so many other things that I could say about her, but this post would take forever. In the one month that she has been here, she has been such a blessing to our family and to everyone else. She is loved by ALL, but especially by me! I spend hours a day holding her and wouldn't have it any other way. She is my precious baby girl and she will only be this little for so long.

On mommy is her favorite place to be...


Ashton got a Boba carrier so that she can carry her baby like I carry Delaney.





When Delaney was just a week old, we went to the Fall Festival at church.


Ashton rode a horse for the first time.



Delaney's first bath and she hated it!


 



The cutest Future Voter ever!


We went to Ashton's school when the firemen were there.


This bath wasn't as bad...
