My baby girl is 1! Of course we had to celebrate and of course the theme had to be garden party with lots of flowers! My mom has the perfect backyard for a party like this so I had to take advantage of it. We had a BBQ and stayed outside pretty much the whole time. I loved all the fresh flowers and the flower wall made the perfect backdrop for her cake smash. We had a great time hanging with friends, enjoying food and watching Ettley enjoy her first taste of cake! We love our growing baby girl!
I am obsessed with how this flower wall turned out! Next time I want to use real flowers! :) This flower wall is for rent if you want to use it for your next party ;)
I forgot how fast time goes especially when you are in the newborn stage. I can’t believe she is already a month old! Looking back on Adler’s one month post I realize that my kids are very similar.
She is tall and skinny like her brother. At her 1 month doctor appointment she weighed 8lbs 6.4 ounces (19th percentile) and she is 22.5 inches tall ( 87th percentile). I was really happy about her weight because I love breastfeeding but the one downside is that I never know if she’s getting enough food.
She is still in newborn clothes but is staring to get a little bigger so I think we will switch to 0-3 very soon!
She has always been a good sleeper even at night! We have been getting 5-6 hours of sleep at night.
She saw Captain America in theaters just like her brother! She slept the whole time!
She seems to be a little more attached to me than Adler was. I like that, except when I’m the only one who can get her to stop crying.
She smiles a ton! I feel like this happened really early but I love my baby smiles, so I’m not complaining!
She loves her stroller, carseat, Mamaroo and anything that moves.
She is getting the hang of her pacifier which makes me really happy.
She likes to be swaddled when she sleeps.
She spits up but nowhere near as bad as Adler (phew)!
Breastfeeding is going a lot better this time around! It was a little rocky at first (cream was a lifesaver!) but we finally figured it out and now we both really like it!
She struggled with acid reflux (we thought Adler had it but now I know he wasn’t even close to having it) but after getting on medicine she is so much happier and so are we!
I love having a little girl and I can’t wait to dress her up! I’m excited to experience the firsts again with her. I love my Ettley girl!
She looks so tiny!!
I love baby snuggles!
This snap chat filter kills me!
Her face! She's so pretty
Haha
I found this idea before I was pregnant so when I found out I was pregnant with a girl I knew I needed to do flower monthly updates!
