1 Month!

Yesterday, Nora turned one month old!  We seriously can't believe how fast it's gone.  It seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital.  It's been a lot of work, but overall an amazing experience!

"First month of life: Nailed it!"

Eleanor is such a happy baby.  She mostly only cries if she is hungry, has a dirty diaper, or is tired.  Otherwise, she is very alert and strong.  She has been lifting her head for a couple of weeks now.  She loves tummy time and plays with the toys in her activity gym (mostly by just randomly hitting them and looking at them).  She can also follow objects and voices.  She has also been smiling, but we're still not sure if it's on purpose or not.  It is darling, either way! 

Crossing my eyes! 

Nora is a good little eater, and has grown out of most of her newborn clothes.  She is also a good sleeper (as far as newborns go).  She usually sleeps 3-4 hours at a time at night, but she has slept as much as 6 hours in a row!  It's so funny that that is a lot of sleep.  Before having a child, I would consider that a bad night of sleep, lol!

Charlie has done well with her.  He likes to lick her head, hands, and feet, but usually stays away from the face, and only licks her once or twice.  We had her on the ground for her one month pics, and he was quite concerned.  He kept barking at us to pick her up!  Too funny.

Charlie loves Nora.  Nora's not so sure.

Those toes!

You should see this guy with his little girl.  Doug gets the "Daddy of the Year" award.

I can lift my head up!

Beautiful girl.
