Angie @ 4 weeks
By Julie

I heard about this Amazon diaper deal from Parent Hacks: buy $99 in diapers by May 31, get a $20 Amazon certificate come July 12 - 26. Angelina has spent more time in newborn diapers than either of her siblings, but even she has already moved on to size 1. To reach $99 in diapers without running into the danger of her outgrowing a size, I guess we'll end up buying one box each of sizes 2, 3, and 4.

Daddy and Angelina

Today Angie turns 4 weeks old. Her appearance is changing fast. Her blue-gray eyes have not switched colors yet, but her blond hair is darkening. She'll probably end up with hair color similar to her siblings. I've already mentioned the change in diaper size. When I hold her against me I think there's no way she could fit in my belly now.

She still spends more hours asleep (or half asleep, judging by how quickly she wakes up when I try to put her down or hand her to someone else) than awake, but we've had the pleasure of seeing her eyes open quite a bit the past week. She often looks vaguely amused, and sometimes when we coo at her she'll coo right back. She also moves a lot: waving her arms, turning her head this way and that way, etc. Once when I was sitting on the sofa with her lying against my left shoulder, she managed to move herself all the way over to my right shoulder like a little baby rock climber by kicking repeatedly.

I've been concerned with the color of her poo; it's been green instead of mustard yellow. After reading this article I think I've found the answer: too much foremilk and not enough hindmilk.
