One Month Old!

Well, I was just going through is socks to kinda put all the same colored ones in the same section. I had his caps in the same place. I came across the cap he wore from the nursery at the hospital. I'm kinda emotional right now since I saw that. It reminded me I needed to post. I really can't believe how the time has passed. Before I know it, I'll have to go back to work and not be able to hold him when ever I want to. I get frustrated when I can't sleep or when he cries and I don't know what he wants. I have to take Tylenol at least once a day. I hold him close to try to settle him down. I guess the screaming in my ear brings the headache on. Or possibly it's not getting no more that 4 hours of restful sleep at a time. But, you know what...I wouldn't trade it for the world. I really have to remember that when his in the middle of a crying spell. I don't know if I get more frustrated at him or myself for not knowing what to do. Everyone told me to cherish these first weeks because they go by so quick. I think I basically have done that. But, I kept thinking to myself. Yeah right, cherish the screaming moments because I'll miss them. But, you know what, that's not what I remember. I remember him looking up at me with those big blue eyes in the middle of the night when I try to get him to go to sleep. How he depended on me for everthing. One day he won't want to be held like that.

He is really an amazing baby. I found him sucking his thumb the other day. I tried to get it on video but missed it. He turns over to his side. He's getting rolls on his legs. I see him everyday and don't notice how much he's grown. But, his NeeNee asks what we are feeding because he's growing so much. Well, he eats Mommy's milk about every 2 hours. He has grown out of some of his 0-3 month clothes. We had to get out the 3-6 month boxes last night. It makes me sad. But, his Daddy is ready for him to sit up and all that. Mommy is just not ready to let go yet.

OK, I got a pic of him sucking his thumb.


Here's his 1 month pic.


And the pic of the first outfit we noticed he grew out of.
