I have been trying to do a post for days. There is just not much time in between taking care of two kids now. I am learning how to multitask even more than before. To write this post, I am bouncing Gianna in my lap with my knee so my hands are free. Whatever works, right? That seems to be my motto lately, I'm not doing everything by the book- just trying to get through the days.
Gianna has been sleeping in her car seat the last few days. She did take a couple naps in her bed. When I put her down, she wakes up right away or soon after. She went over 4 hours at night for the past two nights, I hope she is getting the hang of the night time sleep.
Her first church service was at 2 weeks old. Josh has been taking Hudson with him early for music practice and I have Gianna to get ready. The first service I planned on going to, I overslept and we made it for the end of service.
Hudson and Gianna had their first Walmart trip together. My mom came with us to help. They did really well until I let Hudson out of the basket in the check out line and he was lost for about 3 minutes. That was the scariest 3 minutes of my life!! He went into the ladies bathroom that was a few feet away. Lesson learned- Hudson can't get out of the basket and walk!
She started smiling at 3 weeks and this morning she did some cooing for the first time.
Her umbilical cord fell off at almost 3 weeks and now she can take real baths. Hudson was in the tub so I tried the sink, but she is way too long. She didn't mind, because she likes being all snuggled up.
Hudson likes doing things at the same time as Gianna, so they take their baths at the same time then get dressed together.
She has a big brother that loves her very much! He wants her to do big kid things like play outside and go places with him. It's very sweet that he wants to include her in his activities.
She's a little night owl. She doesn't want to go to bed early. It takes her a while to get settled in for the night.
On Monday, I took her for her 1 month check up.
She weighed 10 lbs 7 oz, 22 inches long and her head is 15". Everything is in the 75th percentile. She is almost the same size as Hudson at 1 month. She made a mess on the table. She got poop on the paper then spit up in another spot. Her PKU blood work was normal and she checked out fine.
Last week, we had a few fall like days. Hudson played outside and we strolled Gianna up and down the driveway.
It seems like she has been here longer than a month. Is it possible for her to grow up faster than Hudson did? Hudson seems so big now. I plan on doing a post all about him soon since he will be 2 1/2 next month!!
