One Month Old

Annabelle is one month old already. Time sure does fly quickly. She is still wearing her newborn clothes. Here are a few things about Annabelle so far in her first month of life

Things she loves

• Mommy's milk
• Bouncing on the exercise ball with Daddy
• Sleeping
• Cuddling with mom or Grandma
• Being swaddle, especially with the Miracle Swaddle Blanket
• Pacifier, but she is still figuring out how to keep it in her mouth
• Going around Tallmadge circle or sharp turns in the car. Otherwise she is screaming in the car unless mommy got her in the carseat while in a deep sleep.

Things she hates

• Bath Time
• Getting her diaper/clothes changed
• Being Naked

Places she's been

• Babies R Us
• Target
• Jen & Todd's house for Browns games
• Matt & Rachel's house
• Jaime & Erin for New Year's Eve Party
• Open Practice Solutions (Matt's work)
• Both Grandparents House
• Breast Feeding Center
• City Hospital (Birth & Breast Feeding Support Group)
• Cold Stone Creamery

Things she needs to work on

• Latching on (Being a little tongue tied & having extra skin inside upper lip makes it a challenge for her. Also mom doesn't help by accepting poor latching on because she to is frustrated!)
• Waking herself up to eat
• Not falling asleep at the boob
• Predictable schedule (we are getting there)
