Lucy's 1st Month

This month has kind of been a blur in the Pierce household.  This first month of Lucy's life has gone by so quickly!!

 

 

At one month Lucy:

- follows objects with her eyes

- likes the sound of a rattle

- doesn't really care for the pacifier

- has a very forceful cry

- has some tummy issues that are hard to pinpoint, but we're still working on that

- compared to her sister, is less of a screamer but is pretty fussy a lot of her waking hours

- REALLY hard to put down to sleep.  When she finally falls asleep it is time to wake her up in 1/2 an hour.

- she's a pretty good nurser

- likes being in a baby carrier

- likes to look at the lights in her room and stares at them when she is being changed

- doesn't really like tummy time

- likes to be cuddled and be held :)

 

 

Lucy is one special little girl and a lot of times we talk about how we can't believe she's here :)! 

 



 

We are just in love with every detail of her!

When this girl is asleep she is OUT!



 

Aubrey is trying to get used to having Lucy around all the time.  Aubrey definitely doesn't like it when we have to bring a crying Lucy into her room during her bedroom routine.  Aubrey is such a caring sister and is SUCH a great great helper though.  She'll pretty much do whatever we ask if it's for Lucy. 

 



 

Aubrey also wants to squeeze her tight and hold her all the time. She's been a little rough with Lucy at times, but she's such a loving big sister and it is so cute to see. She'll go up to Lucy and call her "sweet girl" and say "it's okay" in a very sweet voice when Lucy is crying. Aubrey is also learning to be more independent which is kind of a hard learning curve for her, but she's doing great!

 



 

 We have soaked up the time with daddy being home for a month!  It will be an adjustment with him working a lot of nights and overtime, but we are so thankful he had the time at home for four weeks.  It was busy but SO good to have him home! 

 

The second time around as parents is a little easier we feel in a lot of ways.  We're not as anxious and we don't jump to call the doctor for everything.  At least we feel like we can do this and not be so worried about every little thing :).   We're taking our time trying to figure this little one out.

 

Lucy looks so similar to Aubrey, yet she definitely has her own look to her.  We think she's a keeper :).

 

Our little Lucy is one loved girl. Happy one month Lucy!!! Can't wait for what the next months hold!
