1 Month

El Cap,

1 month (plus a day), wow! Thanks for being part of our family. We are crazy about you and love watching you grow each day. It is a blessing to take care of you and learn about love through you. Here are a few things to remember:

-23 inches long, wish we could weigh you somehow, but we will the next time we hit the produce department

-you mostly wear 6 month carter size clothes

-you laugh and smile a ton

-you seem to be a morning person

-I think you fight sleep and naps sometimes because you don't want to miss out. I keep telling you we are not that exciting, but you must just want to be close:)

-you peed outside at 4 weeks

-pooped and peed in a potty at 4 weeks and 2 days

-you love music and you love to hear me whistle

-you still stare out windows and love to be outside

-you took your first road trip to see cousins at 3 weeks and 4 days

-you eat every 3 hours this week, last week every 2 hours

-you don't suck your lip in anymore, but you suck when you are sleeping

we introduced the pacifier to you in your 3rd week, I have a love/hate relationship with it at this point. you like it a lot sometimes and other times you don't. you don't like it at night when we put you to sleep or during the night, just daytime. your dad is working with names for it because paci or binki just won't due:)

-you have had tears on 2 or 3 occasions

-you have a beautiful smile and you use your whole face to do so

You are just a cool little guy. A laid back man who can just sit on the couch staring out the window and listen to folk music, but who also needs good ol' quality time and physical touch just like your mom and dad. During those times we cuddle, stare at each others faces, laugh, kiss, and keep skin to skin contact. You love to hear our voices and see our faces.

Here are the goods! Wish you all could enjoy him in person like we get to!
