One month old already!


Life with Kylie has been wonderful, and quite a huge adjustment! But things are finally settling down, we're getting to know each other, and getting into a routine. After reading a zillion parenting books this first month, we've found that The Baby Whisperer and The Happiest Baby On the Block are two parenting "techniques" that work best for us. Kylie is now on the E.A.S.Y routine of Eat, Activity, Sleep, You (mom and dad time!). It doesn't always go as planned, but it's getting better and Kylie seems happier with it. Kylie loves to dance around the house with Daddy, and she loves to sing and dance with Mommy (particularly to Baby Einstein's Nursery Rhymes CD!). Her favorite activity is still, by far, eating! Naps are getting to be in more of a pattern.. usually 45 minutes long with a 2-3 hour nap that starts about 3 hours after she wakes up for the day. And night time is much easier now that she goes down around 1am and sleeps about 5 hours. Wakes to eat for an hour, then sleeps another 3! Things are getting easier and we're falling in love with her more and more every day!
