Here are a few videos of Mirella smiling :) Enjoy!!

Happy One Month Birthday Mirella!

Well she's a whole month old now. Actually a little over a month as I type this. She had her 1 month check up appointment today and the Pediatrician said she's doing well! Getting so big!!! She's 9lbs 4oz now, WOW!! My good little eater! Her head is an inch bigger now, and she's grown 2 inches in length! YAY for a growing-healthy baby!! He said her skin looks great, no hip issues, and no vaccines this time around. Next month we go back and she gets 2 shots. :(

She has a little bit of baby acne on her cheeks right now but it's very very mild you can barely see it. She's has day and night figured out, sleeps at night and wakes about 2-3 times to eat and goes right back to sleep. She stays awake most of the day time, with just 2 naps during the day.

She has learned to move her head to follow Tony and I around, which is so much fun! And she smiles now too...real ones... not just gas smiles. :)
Here are some pictures of our little melon pie!

Cute little pose!

Took this one just now, 1 month 4 days old

2 weeks and 4 days old!

Mirella is changing everyday it seems!! She is more alert during the day time and has learned how to be fussy and cry! :) She's doing pretty good at sleeping during the night...she wakes every few hours to eat and goes back to sleep. There were a few nights where she wanted to be awake and cry for a while. But she's doing good now!
My c-section incision has gotten a little bit infected, so the doctor has me on some antibiotics. It's getting better!
We took our first trip outside alone yesterday. I was little nervous going by myself but had to do it sometime. She did very well, she slept the entire time! haha! We went back out today real quick but this time she woke up right when I got in the car and she cried almost the whole time. I had to stop and feed her in the parking lot...with no AC in the car (it needs to be recharged or something) and we both were sweating so bad! YUCK! But she was fine once I fed her.
Here are some pictures of her first baths and just misc ones I've taken during her first few weeks of life. :)
I love my little sweet baby girl!
