One Month!

Our little squeaker, no really-he squeaks a lot and it's pretty dang adorable, is now ONE MONTH OLD!! Seriously?! Where the last month has gone I have no idea...okay, I have a big idea actually-it's followed the repetitive pattern of eat, sleep, play (playing is limited at this time of course). Of course throw in a HUGE dose of cuteness, hugs-very mini/little ones at that, and kisses-a bajillion and one of those.

 Love this expression. I blame this look on his being so little-I had to take so many pictures just to get a few good ones, he probably thought I was going crazy!

He's now:
-starting to connect and focus in on you more
-his top record of sleep at night so far has been 9:00 p.m.-1:30 a.m.
-he feeds well, uses his paci but hasn't yet seemed reliant on it which is a bonus
-has taken a few bottles well
-sleeps cuddled up with you and independently
-turns towards my voice (you better believe I'm loving that!)
-sleeps well in his crib (that could be another blog I guess, but mainly helps all three of us sleep better)
-holds his head up well and long
-has had to experience a few 'cry-outs' (they haven't lasted longer than 15-20 minutes...kind of  pretty dang hard)
-weighs in at 9 pounds
-21 inches long

 

Caden, your dad and I adore you. We are so excited for you to get bigger and to be able to experience all the joy and personality you bring to our lives. We cannot wait for our family to grow together. You have been such a joy and blessing thus far, and we are such lucky parents to have you as our son. So thankful to God for all he has provided throughout this journey and prayers for the journeys that we have yet to share with you.

We love you little man-Happy One Month!
