1 Month!

Wow! Boy does time fly! We celebrated Maddie's 1 month birthday on August 3rd! I can't believe it!! My first reaction was "YES! WE SURVIVED THE FIRST MONTH!"But when I think on it, it went by so quickly. Each day seemed long yet the time flew by. It's has already been a month. 

Maddie weighs 7 pounds 14 ounces and is 22 1/4 inches long. She is still super cute but she is getting so big! She's still wearing newborn clothes but just barely. I am still breastfeeding her most of the time. She only gets formula at night (give this mama a small break). During the day, Maddie eats every 2 to 3 hours and at night she'll usually go 4 hours in between meals. I know it's a while before she sleeps through the night, but if we can keep this pattern up I'd be happy. 

This week has also been a busy week. Not only did we celebrate Maddie's 1 month birthday, we got to go on our first family vacation! Ross, Maddie, and I joined Grandma, Grandpa, and Uncle Brad for a week at Redington Beach, FL. 

We went to our first restaurant as a family: Dockside Dave's. Maddie did very well (she slept through most of it). She woke up at the end as we were leaving.

Maddie also got to try plain yogurt for the first time! Her pediatrician said to give her an oz a day to help her with gas. And surprisingly she enjoyed it! She made a couple funny faces at first, but she seemed to like what we gave her. 

This whole week was a fun filled vacation full of firsts! Can't wait to see what else is next!
