1 Month Old!

I can not believe my little baby boy is already 1 month old!!!

We are doing great, and he sure is keeping us very busy!

Overall he has been a great baby--we must have hit the baby lottery! Besides being the cutest thing alive he is pretty sweet as well.

We go tomorrow to the pediatrician and I am eager to see how much he has grown. He is breastfeeding, which honestly has been a roller coaster of ups and downs but is well worth it. Lately he is ALWAYS hungry and wants to eat all the time. We are hoping this is a growth spurt and he will slow down soon (he eats every 2 hours during the day and sometimes sooner than that).

Sleeping at night is overall good, we just wake up frequently to eat but he goes right back to sleep after. He normally eats (or now wakes me up to eat) every 3-4 hours at night, but of course last night he woke me up every 2 hours!!! He likes to sleep in so we end up still averaging 7-8 total hours of sleep which is great.

Baylor has pretty much outgrown all of his newborn clothes and diapers with a few exceptions. We had to go shopping last week to buy more 0-3 month clothes which fit perfectly.

It is amazing to see how developmentally he has already grown. He can now maintain eye contact and track objects (or us!) moving around. He is starting to talk more, as in coo-ing and babbling just a bit. We love talking back to him! The best feeling is when he is upset and just hearing my voice calms him!  

I could go on and on and on, we just love getting to know and spend time with our sweet baby!
