Our first month together has been amazing.  Adelaide is  a really good baby. She's sleeping really well, only waking me up to eat, and then going right back to sleep (more or less).  We haven't had any really bad nights yet, knock on wood.  She's not a big fan of being put down, and is definitely a mover and a shaker. She's OK in the car and the stroller, as long as we're moving.  When she's awake at home, we have to be rocking, walking and singing, unless of course she's curled up in a teeny tiny ball on her Daddy's chest (where she spends most mornings and evenings).

Daddy is doing great. He's right in there changing diapers, bathing, soothing and loving.  He's head of heels for his baby girl.

The dogs are doing well.  Lola is pretty indifferent, Jenny is a little Mama.  Always worried about where the baby is and if she is OK.  They're absolutely great and I know Adelaide will love them.

When we left the hospital (June 6, 2012) she was down to 5lbs 8oz, but by her 1 week well baby check up (June 11, 2012), she was up to 6lbs, 5oz (surpassing her birth weight by 2 oz!).  She eats like a champ, and has since birth.  We've been really lucky that neither of us has had any trouble with nursing. She latches well, my supply came in right on time, and we've been rocking it ever since. As of today, July 4, 2012 - exactly one month old - she is up to 7lbs 15oz.  Pretty soon we'll be able to switch to the cloth diapers that we bought... so far she's been too tiny! :)  Everyone comments on how alert she is (when she's awake), and she's been holding her head up from the beginning.  Even the doc commented on that today.

I'm loving being at home with her, and I can't believe how fast time is flying (I know, I know... every parents says it, but it's SO true!). 

Happy Birthday my sweet wee girl. Mama and Daddy love you more than you can imagine!
