ALREADY!!
As determined as I am to cherish every moment and not rush time . . . time rushes on anyway. I really can't believe he is already a month. The other side of that I guess is that I can't really hardly imagine life without him. We are really enjoying our little man. What a gift from God.
At one month:
- He is settling into life nicely. He still has his fussy times and definite times of sore tummy, but he has lots of contented and happy times too.
- He loves to be cuddled and held.
- He loves his soother most of the time. There are times though when the soother is really NOT the answer he is looking for.
- He has no schedule whatsover. Probably my fault:), but so far it's working for us.
- He sneezes more than any baby I know!
- He has a very strong neck and holds himself up very well.
- Has been smiling for two weeks already, but really makes us work for them still.
- Has big blue eyes and focuses very well.
- Doesn't do particulary well in his carseat - not bad, but not good either.
- Loves being in the bath - just not the "air time" getting in/out.
- Loves having a blankie by his cheek. Cozy!
- His mouth shape makes me laugh when he starts to cry. It is funny.
- Got lipstick put on him today by Kylie.
- Has a very healthy set of lungs and uses them often enough.
- Is 10lbs and maybe a few ounces. He was exactly 10 lbs on Monday.
- Has outgrown a few sleepers already. (They were a pretty good fit when he was born already)
- Is spoiled. Lots of outfits to wear/lookforward to wearing. Lots of hands/arms to hold him.
We love this little guy so much!!!
What a cute little man you have!! Congratulations on his birth, and also on surviving the first month! ;-) At the risk of sounding like one of those people who always has unwanted advice, you might consider looking up some info on acid reflux (if you haven't already). A dear friend of mine had a baby who had definite fussy/ sore tummy times and also did not appreciate the car seat, they got the baby on anti-reflux meds, and the baby was like a new (happy!) child. Apparently the car seat position really aggravates reflux so that is why some babies hate carseats....Ok, that is my 2 cents worth. ;-) Your family is beautiful, and your last post on Kylie made me laugh. :-D
ReplyDeleteHe is a beautiful blessing. I have been reading, but have been a bad commenter. Your family is getting so big. It is hard to believe! (o;
