Ivy Jane 1 Month Stats!

This little cutie pie is going to be 5 weeks tomorrow!!! I can NOT believe how fast time has flown since she was born.  We are in love with her and at her Dr. appointment were pleased to find out her stats!!!

1 month Stats:
Wieght:  9 lbs. 11 oz. - 60%
Height: 21 1/8 inches - 50%
Head: 36 1/2 - 50%

She is so sweet, so beautiful, and brings such a special spirit into our house.  I love just holding her and snuggling her and she LOVES to be held.  She has a little bit of reflux like her brother Griffin had which causes some pain after she eats and a LOT of spit up, but after getting her on baby zantac she is doing great and is just the happiest little content baby.  She also seems to be my chubbiest baby and I love that she is filling out and I can kiss those cute cheeks! She was 7 lbs. 12 oz. on June 1 at 4 days and on June 30 was 9 lbs. 11 oz. so had gained 2 lbs.  Good job little growing princess!

Little Ivy you make the cutest little grunt noises and funny noises when you stretch - I LOVE that you like to sleep with your hands up by hour face clenched in fists on each side, or you put them under your chin and look so feminine when you sleep.  You pucker up your lips so cute and have fuller lips more like your daddy.  You arch your head back and LOVE to look at faces and on your one month b-day on the 28th you looked at me and smiled actually at me 3 different times.  I will always remember how I felt.  It melted my heart.  You smile a TON in your sleep and your brothers adore you.  You can scream VERY loud when you want, but only do it when you have a messy diaper (which occurs only 1 every 4 days right now), when you are hungry and want to be fed, or have a giant burp that needs to come out.  Otherwise you are very content and enjoy sleeping a lot, even on your side and tummy, only wake up once a night or maybe twice to eat, currently will take a bottle or nurse and you are my best little nurser of all 3 kiddos.  You have the most beautiful skin and I have had so much fun dressing you up, making headbands for you, and loving on you!  You are beautiful little princess, and I hope you will always remember that!!!  I love you SOOO much!


Your brother Cash loves to hold you and is actually very good at helping me.  He watches you while you are in the swing so I can shower, and can get you to smile at him right now too!  He is going to always protect you and you are lucky to have him as your big brother!


Stretching! 

 moving around!  love this little outfit and your cute little legs and toes and hands!

 Cash ALWAYS wants to be in the picture with you and watch you!

Can't get enough shots of you two!


 Check out the full lips you have!  LUCKY girl!

 Funny little face you are making - I love when you crinkle it all up as you stretch and then get ready to let out a cry but it takes about 15 seconds before anything comes out.  So cute!

 You love to sleep with your head snuggled into something, and here are into my pillow!  I was with you here tho, to make sure you didn't smother yourself ;)

 Love you sleeping princess!


some fun little videos of Ivy this past month.  We love you baby girl!!!
