Oh Evelyn,
It is official! You are an all night sleeper! You sleep about 9 hours per night! What an amazing little babe you are! If that wasn't great enough, you are also super content, laid back, and happy. I am blessed!
You are eating about 6 oz. of formula 5-6 times per day. I try to feed you when you wake up instead of when you are getting tired, that way you are not relying on a bottle to get you to go to sleep. You can be laid in your crib or pack and play wide awake and you will soothe yourself right to sleep (with or without a pacifier)and often with your little thumb. You prefer your left thumb. You sleep in your crib at night and do some naps there or in the pack and play. It really doesn't get much better than that. I can't believe you are such an easy baby. You remind me a lot of your big sister, Ava, when she was a baby. She was just like that.
You are putting lots of weight on your legs. You are holding your head up superbly, and you like to sometimes sit in your Bumbo. You still are not a fan of tummy time, but started to get the hang of it towards the end of the month. You smile a lot and are very chatty.
You do not like to sit in an idle car. You will cry immediately and then stop immediately as we start moving.
Your skin is looking much better. There is still some cradle cap, but your face is getting softer again and the skin behind your ears has cleared up and your eczema is getting better. We followed Drs. order and have you taking a warm bath every other day using Cetaphil soap, and getting lathered with Aquaphor 2 times daily. Every 2 weeks, if you have bumpy spots, I will spot treat you with your prescription Hydrocortisone. Then we take a two week break on that before spot treating your skin again.
You love to be held, mostly over the shoulder and cuddling is one of our favorites.
