I can't believe we are in month
three and I haven't posted about our precious baby girl. Well, other than her
birth story.
The first month was a rough one
for me since I had a few medical hurdles. Thankfully, Harper was an angel. She
didn't cry the entire first month - she just grunted. She grunted a lot though.
Not sure if she knew her mama was having a rough time or if it had to do
with her being a month early or not. Either way. She latched
immediately in the hospital, so we didn't have any issues with breast feeding.
I've been lucky with nursing my girls. A week after she was born she had
to take a bottle one night since I had surgery and had to stay overnight in the
hospital again. I was upset I had to leave her so soon, but she was a
champ. Took the bottle perfectly and it didn't mess up our nursing
routine when I got back home.
By Month 2 she did finally cry
for us! The only times she cries is when she is hungry and I'm not
getting her fast enough or if she's tired.
She loves being talked to and
smiles all the time. Her sisters are always in her face, touching her,
and giving her kisses. She doesn't mind it too much, but we try to give
her a break from them a lot of the time. Harper doesn't enjoy tummy time
and will start to get fussy a minute or two after I put her there.
Honestly, I don't give her as much tummy time as she probably should get.
Oops!
She's getting so big! She got
weighed a little before her 3 month birthday and she weighed 13 pounds.
She looks like she will be built like Hadleigh is built - which is a
little more stocky and muscular than Hayden.
She looks just like her daddy in this picture!! I just bake the babies and they come out looking like their daddy :) Even though life is crazy with
three, we cannot imagine our lives without our baby Harper!!
