Ella has her 1 month doctor's appointment yesterday and we got proof that she is getting so big! At birth she weighed 7 lbs, 8oz. and now weighs 9lbs, 2oz! She is 21 inches, up from 20 inches when she was born. And she's still in the 50% percentile for everything. Sweet Pea is starting to fit into 3 month clothes, but only the smaller fit ones.
At 1 month, Ella:
Lifts her head up most of the time and holds it for several seconds
Starts to suck her thumb
Holds onto the bottle and brings it to her mouth when she's hungry and pushes it away when she's full
Stretches her legs out more and doesn't stay in the fetal position so much
Turns her head from side to side and follows Mommy's face and voice with her eyes
Smiles in reaction to Mommy
Has good eye contact
Loves her bouncy seat
Likes when Sassy reads to her (her fave right now is Llama, Llama, Red Pajama)
Is starting to coo instead of just grunt
Slept for 8 long hours the last 2 nights
that one sticker is so big! So funny! She will grow so fast!!
