Who knew moving was such a hassle! I'm at the public library for a little update - sorry no photos ~ yet! We've had some great photos the past couple of days marking the day when Lily turned one month (!) so we hope to be able to post those soon. Mom has asked that she have her house back in order by Friday so this week we'll be doing the final unpacking and hooking up the computer. Living in Beeton is great! A small community with lots of green space and friendly people. We just went to the bank to open an account for Lily and have learned that we need a birth certificate and a SIN card for her; we'll need to get on that!
All in all, life is good and we're really enjoying Lily! She has settled into some sort of a routine. Sleep between midnight and six a.m. for four to five hours straight then she feeds then she's back to sleep for about one to two hours. Then she gets up and her and Mike go for a walk while I either have another nap or do stuff around the house, or days like today I go on the walk too. She'll sleep and feed off and on until around 3 p.m. then she has about two hours where she is alert and cooing and generally hanging out. Then she'll nap for an hour or two. Around 7 or 8 she starts her nightly routine. She naps and feeds for 20-40 minutes at a time. Around 10 p.m. she gets really fussy and stays that way until around midnight. Mike then swaddles her while I have a shower and get ready for bed (no long than about 11 minutes - trust me!) then I feed her and Mike walks her to sleep and she's out for the night. That in a nutshell is life with one month old Lily Rosemary!
That's all for now, I really hope to have some updated photos very soon! PPS
