One Month Old

Everett is already 1 month old today!  Time flies.  He is such a good baby and so laid back.  He is finally starting to wake up more so he is crying/being fussy more now, but it's still very rare.  He sleeps a lot, but he eats every 3 hours.  He wears preemie or newborn size diapers, and newborn size sleepers are still huge on him width-wise.  He is just starting to make eye contact every once in a while, and he will sometimes track a rattle, but for the most part, he just looks every which way around him and stares into space!

Ella is still madly in love with him...I thought by now she'd be kind of over it, but she just adores him. When she wakes up in the morning or from her nap, the first thing she wants to do is go check on baby brother. She constantly wants to hold his hand, and she is always giving him kisses.

We took Everett out for his first real outing yesterday.  Since he's still not supposed to be out unless we are outdoors, what better place then an outdoor mall?! 

Funny that our first outings seem to always involve shopping!  Here is the photo of our first outing with Ella to Baby Gap...

A few months ago, I met another great mama, who lives a street away from us and has a daughter the same age as Ella.  Today the girls walked home from the park together...

And finally, the girls and I did a little pre-NYE girls night out, and I had my first margarita (well first alcohol drink at all) in almost a YEAR!!!  It was d.e.l.i.c.i.o.u.s.
