Happy 1 month birthday, Minden! I cannot believe how fast the first month of your life has gone. In fact, it's gone too fast. I just wish I could freeze time and capture the feeling of you snuggling in my arms against me forever.
The first two weeks of your life you were so sleepy, and barely made any fuss. We spent this time cuddling and adjusting to having you at home. Your dad was able to spend the first week of your life right by our side. We were so lucky. Both of your grandmas also came and spent time snuggling you, and spoiling us with home cooked meals.
You have now found your voice. I think you may be as impatient as me. You will go from lightly stirring to what we call your pterodactyl cry. It can make me jump if I'm not prepared for it. However, I can't blame a girl for wanting to be heard. When you want something you want it then and there.
Our nights have been a mix. You usually give me 2 -3 hours of sleep at a time. On a good night you might go 4 hours. You are breastfed, so you do wake up more often to eat.
Even though your smiles aren't directed towards me, at this point, they melt my heart. We feel so extremely blessed to have you in our lives, and are constantly pinching ourselves over how beautiful and perfect you are. Keep growing little lady, we can't wait to see what the next month brings.
