H: One Month

Technically you were one month old last week. I found T ripping up the little info sheet we got from the doctor the other day so I figured I'd better write a little something here before all record of your newborn days disappeared.

Seriously. There has been A LOT of crying this past month. This past week has been a little better so hopefully you are growing out of this phase. In the meantime, I am getting a lot of use out of my Moby wrap.

You are not as well behaved of a newborn as T was but it seems easier this time around. Maybe because I actually know what to expect? I don't have as much trouble guessing what you need when you start to cry.
Also: you take a pacifier and a bottle (unlike T) and I didn't realize how much better life could be when your baby does that.

We love all the goofy faces you make.
You are pretty much holding up your head already - you're very strong.
And you are chunking up quite nicely (possibly due to the every 2 hours feeding schedule you insisted on for the first 3 weeks of life). I think we are in for another baby with huge chipmunk cheeks.

Happy 1st month to my 2nd born!
