1 Month

Darcy is one month old today! I know everyone says it, but it really has gone by so fast. Most people count four weeks but Drew said if she was born on the 30th her month birthday is the 30th. So I am honoring his wishes and making a post today. :)

Things we want to remember about Darcy's first month:

- 10 lbs. 15 oz.! 22 inches. Not having any trouble eating or packing on the pounds.

- We have to scrub the creases of her neck rolls because spit-up sits in them and it stinks.

- Grown out of some of her newborn clothes.

- Car rides always put her to sleep.

- We have had some rough crying episodes because of gas, especially at night. Week 3 was pretty hard because of it. Mylicon drops are our new best friend.

- Blonde is starting to show up at her the roots of her hair.

- People stop us in the stores to tell us how beautiful she is. The cheeks and hair are a big hit. We love it.

- She looks almost exactly like pictures of her mom as a baby.

- She is a noisy eater!

- Follows us around the room with her eyes, holds her head up quite a bit, and smiles on accident.
Close up.
Hanging out with Drew.
I had to post this one. Check out those dance moves!


Not really much going on, just some cute baby noises.

Love the hair...isn't it amazing how fast they go from shriveled alien wrinkly skin...to chubby, plump pink skin in weeks? I love it! She's beautiful, congrats guys! And Mylicon drops are our favorite too as well as a little baby jazzercise that gets all the gas out!

Oh my gosh, I went back to Jan, on your "When's that Baby Due" post to see your baby pic, and she is looking exactly like you in her first pic. Love the polka dots. Super cute!

I love her cheeks. She is so cute. Gripe water works wonders too, when the Milicon isn't working.
