One Month

Reece is one month old today. Each day this month, I'm posting on facebook one thing that I'm grateful for. Today, I was tempted to post this since one month ago today, I was in labor:

Oh, epidurals truly are amazing.

Anyways, back to Reece and how she's doing!

She is still a perfect baby. Sleeps and eats really well. Doesn't cry unless she wants something (to eat, be held, or poop). 

She's getting a lot stronger when it comes to lifting her head. She can even hold it up for a good length of time.

She is still wearing newborn size clothing. Some of the 0-3 month clothes fit, but most of them are still too big.

She is consistently sleeping 5 hour stretches each night, which is WONDERFUL. Feels so good to get that much sleep at once. Hopefully in another month, we'll have her sleeping through the night.

When she was first born, I saw so much of Derek in her. I had a hard time seeing much resemblance to me. But now that Reece is getting older, I see more and more of me in her every day.

Who do you think she looks more like? I have a hard time deciding. I think she's a pretty good mix of the both of us.

But, Reece and I have a few similarities! We were both born on the day after our due date, and she was born at 6:41pm and I was born at 6:42pm. Pretty cool, huh? 

Well, I think so.

Reece and I even make similar faces and have the same nose:

And now, here she is in her church outfit yesterday! There is a possibility that I might be obsessed with my baby.
