First Christmas

This of course was your first Christmas. You are only six weeks old, so you had no idea what today was all about or what was going on. You got to get held a lot by everyone and I am sure that you enjoyed that! You got a lot of fun toys that I can't wait for you to be able to play with. You did get one thing that you started to use already, a new chair to lay/sit in and toys that dangle on it for you to bat at. Merry First Christmas!

Check-Up

Today you had your one month check up at the doctor's. He said that you were a very healthy and big boy! You have gained over 2 pounds and now you weigh 12 pounds! And you grew 1.5 inches, so now you are 23.5 inches. Your Dad and I are a little concerned about your neck and you possibly having the same problem Sam did, but the doctor said we would keep an eye on it and re-check it in a month. So, you are doing great and growing very well!

One Month

Your first month has gone by so quickly. It does seem like it has been awhile since we left the hospital but at the same time, I don't feel like it has already been a month that you have been home. The first couple weeks you really slept a lot, which made adjusting to two kids pretty easy. In the last week you have been starting to be more awake during the day and more alert. You have started to like laying on the floor and just checking things out and listening to your brothers run around the house. You really like to kick your legs too! You are sleeping great at night, only getting up a couple of times to eat and then you go right back to sleep. You are starting to coo a little bit and it's so cute. I can't wait to see how much you change in the next month now!
