Taylen Ann. I can't believe it's been 2 months and I'm getting ready to go back to work soon. You are such a joy baby girl. Your personality reminds me so much of Aspen's as a baby but with a little bit of difference too. You are pretty go with the flow, but when you get hungry- watch out b/c you will let us all know about it. haha We love you so much baby girl- you are just perfect to complete our family.

Taylen eats 4 oz every 3 hours or so except in the mornings, it's more like every 1.5 hours. She is in a pretty consistent schedule of waking at 7 or so in the morning and being awake until 10 or 10:30 then taking her first nap for the day. It's usually a short nap (about an hour or hour and a half) and then she's up and ready to eat again. After that bottle she's usually back asleep for nap #2 by 12:30 or 1 and will sleep for a few hours during this nap. Then it's hit and miss for the rest of the day with bath time around 7 or 7:30 and she's usually asleep for the night around 8 and will sleep until 3 am or so.

Taylen really loves bath time and getting her diaper changed. I get the best smiles during diaper changes (when of course my camera isn't in my hand!). She has started smiling a lot more lately too. I got her really close to what sounded like an almost giggle this morning but not quite there yet. I can't wait for those baby giggles! She naps really well in her swing. Taylen goes really well to anyone so hopefully that keeps up when she starts daycare.

Time has gone so fast this last month- I can't believe it is almost time for me to go back to work and get into a whole new routine. We celebrated Taylen's first Christmas over this month and got lots of time with family, where of course there was no shortage of attention given to her. :) We are just so in love with Taylen and being a new family of 4! 

Taylen - One Month



Written 12/1/13

 



I think I said this in almost everyone of Aspen's monthly updates- but seriously how is it possible?!! Taylen was one month on December 1. We spent the day at Poppy's celebrating Thanksgiving. Aspen had a blast playing with her poppy and aunties and Taylen got spoiled with everyone loving on her. It was a great day.

Clothes/Diapers - Wearing Newborns and 0-3 month clothes and newborn diapers

Taylen is a great baby. For the most part she doesn't cry unless she is hungry (and then it's like she's been starving for days- ha!) or if we're strapping her in her car seat. Definitely not a fan of the car seat yet. She eats about every 2.5-3 hours about 3 oz. She is starting to get into a little routine of being awake in the morning for a few hours then she sleeps most of the afternoon and is awake from around 4 or 4:30-7 or 7:30 when she goes down for the night. She sleeps in the night great for the first half of the night (from about 8-1 or 2 if I'm lucky) and then up every 2-3 hours after that.

This first month has gone by so quickly. Can't wait to see her grow! :)
