Baby Anna is over a month old now! Where does a month go? I have to admit, I have the best baby in the land. She has been a dream! She hardly cries except in the evening at times and when I try to go shopping. Allie and AJ are adjusting well to life with a baby. They are definitely pushing every button they can and seeking a little extra attention, but who can blame them??
Here are a few facts about each of our babies:
-Anna-
1. She is a great sleeper. I only have to get up with her once in the night and sometimes she will even sleep until 6:00 am!
2. She loves to be held and she LOVES to eat!
3. She HATES binkies! Occasionally Alberto can get her to take one, but it only lasts a minute or two then she will pop it out with her tongue...it is kind of funny.
4. She looks more like her big sister than anyone else. They have so many features in common! The biggest difference is that Allie had very little hair as a tiny baby and Anna has a whole lot of hair!
5. She does the cutest pouty lip just like Allie and AJ and she has a little fake cry when she wants attention.
6. She loves to be wrapped tight for sleeping.
7. She is starting to smile and it melts your heart.
8. She loves her crib
9. She HATES her car seat and gets really hot and sweaty in there no matter what!
10. She is very strong-she can hold her head up pretty well, she enjoys tummy time and she
has even rolled over a few times when she is upset.
