One Month Old

Ella Jo,
Today you are one month old! The time is flying by but I am enjoying every moment cuddling with you. 
At one month:

  • Weigh 9lbs 11ounces and finally gaining consistent weight with nursing exclusively.
  • Nurse on both sides 7-9 times a day
  • Sleep anywhere from 4-6 hour stretches at night but seem to wake around 3am no matter what time we put you down.
  • Sleep in the travel lite pack-n-play swaddled because we got paranoid with you sleeping in the rock-n-sleep thing. 
  • Are changed by Daddy in the middle of the night and then Mommy feeds you.
  • Your eyes seem to be changing from that dark newborn blue to shades of gray.
  • Have dark hair, way darker than your big brothers.
  • Really only seem to cry when your tummy hurts and it all seems to be better once you spit up, toot, or poop.
  • Will cuddle and be held by anyone
  • Seem to spit up after every feeding and every time you are in the car seat. Mommy is hoping reflux is not in your future.
  • Take the paci ok.
  • Have very dry skin right now.
  • Seem to have rather large feet like you Nonni!
  • Already smile and have such personality!
  • Have already been to your first baseball and soccer games in the Baby Ergo carrier and seemed pretty content.
  • Do not seemed too bothered by noise hence having your big bros around.
  • Are loved on all day long by Will who cannot keep his hands off of you. Gaines loves you too but he is busy doing other things as well:).
Ella Jo Odom, you are amazing!!!
9 pounds 11 ounces

So many expressions already!

My new norm and what is not pictured is 5 minutes before I was nursing Ella Jo with these monkeys on top of me.

Poor baby girl has already been to baseball games.

Soccer and baseball all in one day.
