The McCravy Monologues: One Month

One Month

Our little Lucy is one month old today. She is such an easy-going baby, which is such a blessing to her mama and daddy! She's starting to stay awake a little more these days and is usually content to hang out awake for about an hour or so before she's ready for a nap. While she's pretty good on the go, she prefers to sleep in her bed. Just don't wake her up from a good nap in her bed to put her in the car seat and expect her to go back to sleep. She doesn't really like a paci, but will take one very briefly on occasion. She still wants to eat about every three hours, but has been known to go up to 5 hours on several occasions during the night, though this is not consistent. We're definitely getting used to life with an infant and our baby Lucy certainly is adored and loved by her siblings and her parents!

It's really difficult to get a good picture of a baby without a backbone so this is the best I could get on her one month birthday.

She looks so chubby in the other picture that I wanted to show just how tiny she still is.

Jack is our inquisitive firstborn. At five years old, he’s extremely interested in how things work and will ask a ton of questions until he gets a satisfactory answer. He's an active kid who enjoys running, jumping, and playing outside. However, give him a video game and he would sit and play all day if we let him. Lover of anything "Buzz" these days, he's definitely all boy. But don't let him fool you, he still has fun playing princesses with his sister! He is a great helper and loving big brother and his deep dimples melt our hearts every time he smiles.

Anna is our spunky three year old. She wants to do everything her big brother does, as long as she can do it while wearing a dress. She is Miss Independent most of the time, and certainly has her own sense of style these days. She loves being a helper around the house, and when she's in the mood, she's the best cleaner upper in the family! She enjoys reading books, singing, dancing, coloring, and playing dress up with her brothers. She will always be our baby girl, and has the biggest, sweetest blue eyes we’ve ever seen.

Sam is our stubborn number three. He's a stinker who manages get into EVERYTHING! It's hard to resist that wide smile and mischievous giggle, though, even when he's up to no good. He's a boy on the move and will do anything to keep up with his older siblings. He loves balls, trains, playing outside, and wearing everyone's shoes but his own. Some days he's still our snugly little boy, and that's quite alright with us because that boy with the toothy grin has brought an enormous amount of joy to our family!
