Alyssa – 1 Month Old

Aly is officially 1 month old. The month has gone by very quick. She has been a very good baby. She seems to mostly eat and sleep. She usually gets fussy in the evening before bed. But, that is pretty much it. She is growing like a weed. Her height is 22″ (80%), her weight is 10 lbs 6 oz (79%), and her head is 37.2″ (50%).

We gave Aly her 1st bath after Thanksgiving. Noah is great at helping with the bath. He uses cotton balls to help clean Aly off.

Noah is getting use to having Aly around. He still gets jealous when I am trying to feed her. Hopefully that will subside over time. I have been trying to play outside with him in the afternoons while Aly is napping. He really likes the snow (just like his dad). He went sledding for the 1st time a couple of weeks ago.

Jay has been excellent at helping out. I went out by myself for the 1st time since Aly was born last week. I had my hair cut and went shopping for Aly. It was nice to spend some time by myself. Jay is learning his way around the kitchen more. He helped cook dinner the other night and did the dishes. He had to wear Noah in the backpack to keep him occupied.

Noah is getting excited for Santa. We went to the library to see Santa this year. Noah and Aly both did excellent. It helped that Santa handed out candy. This year we will be heading to Columbus for Christmas. We will be stopping in Bourbonnais on the way down and the way back to break up the trip.

    What a great set of pictures. I can’t believe how much she’s grown! We are looking forward to seeing her on Thursday!

    Did you hit Noah in the face with a snowball?

    No, he fell on the driveway and did a face plant. I think the stuff on his face is dirt.

    Actually I think he has chocolate on his face. I think that was the day I made chocolate zucchini cake.
