Guess who is officially 1 month old!
And guess who is now 32 years old!
My 2 boys are getting older and older!
Yes, Max is now 1 month old! I can't believe how fast time has flown by! It honestly seems just like yesterday that I was still pregnant! Over the last month he has brought us so much joy and happiness. I honestly cannot describe how much I love him! I could stare at him all day long. I don't want to jinx us but he is such a good baby. He is on a fairly good schedule and sleeps well through the night. He isn't anywhere close to "sleeping through the night" but only wakes up 2-3 times a night and once he eats he goes right back to sleep. He is nursing great and makes the funnies sounds when he is eating, he does the cutest little snort! When we went into the doctor for his 2 week appointment he was back up to his birth weight plus a little ( 8 lb 8 oz). He said that he "WELL PAST the recommended 1/2 ounce per day gain" so he is quite the chunk these days. He is starting to smile a little bit when we play with him and recognizes us when he sees our faces. When he does decide to fuss (usually only for his afternoon nap) he likes to be held and sung to; Michael is obviously a better singer than I am, I usually make up words to lullaby's that I have forgotten the words to. When he does finally sleep, he makes funny little faces and noises. His eyes flutter, just like me when I sleep. Michael says he looks a lot like me when he is sleeping and looks like him when he is awake. But he does change so much every day. (Right now we are suffering from "baby acne" and going a little bald on the top of his head, so we call him George Costanza) We are both so happy to have little Max in our lives! I sometimes feel like I could have 5 of him and still wouldn't have enough!
And yes, Michael also celebrated his birthday this week. We have had so many visitors in and out of town that I didn't really plan much for his birthday. I am a bad wife, I know. But his family did come over and we went out to dinner. Even though I did give him a child for his birthday, I also got him an OVERPRICED University of Utah sweatshirt that he had been wanting for months, maybe I am not a bad wife?
Happy Birthday Michael! Max and I both love you!
Here are some pictures from the past week... I will post more later..
Bath time
Sleeping (what's new?)
Smiling - maybe at me? maybe because he passed some gas?
I just love this little guy!
Also Happy Birthday to many many family members!
Happy Birthday Sammy! Jared! Robin! Katie!
September is a Birthday month for Michael's side!
