Hadley: One Month Old!

 Happy One Month Birthday, Miss Hadley!

It's hard to believe, but a month has already come & gone! Hadley Mae turned one month old on Friday, April 19th. Time to start the monthly blog posts! But first, we'll start off with a few of Hadley's "Just Born" photos that were taken on March 29th when she was 1.5wks old.

Now we'll fast forward to the 1 month photos that were taken today, April 22nd, when Hadley was officially 1 month & 3 days old. She's definitely added a few rolls over the past month! ;)

What a month it has been! We have enjoyed getting to know you this month & getting to experience so many firsts with you! Your first time meeting your grandparents, your first Easter, your first bath, your first walk in the stroller, your first time having an explosive diaper, and the list goes on! Speaking of diapers, you have already graduated from newborn to size one diapers! As for clothes, your newborn clothes are getting a little snug but you are still wearing mostly newborn stuff as well 0-3 month.

I think Hadley is definitely chubbier than Shelby was at 1 month
& I think Hadley looks a lot like Shelby did at 2 months!

Hadley--you love bath time, being swaddled, looking at lights, being held, and you love when Shelby sings to you. :)  You do not like when Shelby's hair tickles your face {which happens a LOT because she is always smothering you..ha!}. You are a great nurser so far & you're a much better sleeper than Shelby was at this age! Since you're still so little, your sleep is far from consistent yet. But we are starting to see some patterns emerging. We can usually get at least one 3-4 stretch of sleep at night, which is glorious! Naps are definitely more of a struggle with you than nighttime sleep, but some days I can get you to take a 2 hour nap at the same time Shelby naps. Those are good days for this tired Mama. ;)  Today you were a great napper though...perhaps we are turning a corner! Fingers crossed! ;)

And here is Shelby at one month, and her one month post is {HERE}.

And just for fun, here are a few pics of Miss Hadley's first bath on April 18th..just one day shy of her one month birthday. 

And for comparison's sake, here are pics of Shelby's first bath....they definitely look a lot alike!!

Happy One Month, sweet girl! We can't wait to see what the next month will bring! We love you so much!
