Saturday, February 13th Lucy was ONE WEEK OLD! I can't believe our little baby has been in this world for a week. Time goes so fast and she is growing and changing every single day. In this past week we are taking time to adjust to our new princess and her wants and needs. One cannot describe the amount a love a new mother and father have for their infant…it is such an intense level of emotion that it can't be put into words. ***Each week I am going to try to post a picture of Miss Lucy in her crib so we can document her growth. I also hope to record some special things about her from that week so we will never forgot these special moments.***
Likes:
-snuggling on my Daddy's chest
-cuddling in bed with Mommy after nursing
-Kiddopotamus Swaddle blanket
-taking long, 3 hour naps during the day
-looking all around, checking things out, when I'm awake
-bouncing in my Daddy's arms when I'm restless
-nursing around the clock(every 2 hours during the day and every 3 hours at night)
Dislikes:
-sleeping for more than 2 hours at night
-sleeping around the hours of 4:30-6:00 a.m.
-getting my diaper changed and watch out, Mommy - If you try to change my diaper in the middle of the night I may just poop across the room (literally..hahah!)
-getting cold during my sponge baths (I can't wait for my first "real" bath!)
-sleeping in my co-sleeper! (I much prefer sleeping on my Mommy's chest or in her arms!)
-stamping my hand and footprints with dark black ink during "Craft Time" with Mimi and Mommy….hahah
And for the final dislike….
-I do NOT like being laid in my crib alone!

The picture with the sign is a cute idea, I saw this in a parent's magazine recently and thought darn, I should have done that!! Good going with getting on top of it now:) Jackson never slept in his crib until about 6 months........he was in our room but preferred to sleep in the swing, crazy but you will do anything to get them to SLEEP.
Anything....Jenny is right you will do anything to help a fussy baby settle down..If her playtime is 4:30 a.m. then play. :) If you don't have to go to work then it isn't so bad. Mimi played from 4:30 till ? and we were the first to know that OSU closed due to snow. Lucy and Mimi watched the weather channel together... xo
Adorable post...you'll never regret documenting these little things about Lucy. I can't wait to see how she grows with each week/month in the future. I heard she was showing off on the scale today! :) I'm so proud of you both! (P.S. Can't I play with Lucy at 4:30am, too?)
She has to be the cutest crying baby in the world. Everyone keeps asking about you at school. They can't wait for you to bring Lucy and show her off!
