One Month

Our sweet little boy is already one month!  The past few weeks have flown by.  Everyday we fall more and more in love with him!!  He is such a blessing and such a good baby, we have been very lucky.

Here are a few things about Mr. Parker...

-He is sleeping 4-5 hour stretches at night, which is very nice for Mommy and Daddy!!
-He loves to eat!!  We are nursing and supplementing with formula and he is doing great with both.  But dont be shocked when its time to burp and he gets MAD!
-He LOVES his swing and watching the mobil on the swing.  He is so alert it is amazing. 
-He LOVES music!!  Anytime music comes on he becomes calm and just sighs.
-He is lifting his head and when he cannot quite get it up he is constantly trying.  He really enjoys tummy time and while on his mat looks like the is swimming...his legs and arms are constantly on the go
-His favorite time of the day is bathtime!  He could lay in there all day long if we would let him.  He just stares at the mirror and kicks his feet.  When its time to get out, he lets us know he is not happy about it!!
-He smiles all the time...at first it was just the precious smiles in his sleep but now he will smile while we talk to him and when we tickle his little feet
-he is still in newborn clothes.  steadily gaining weight but still so tiny.  people make 8lbs out to be such a big baby but he is soo small!!
-He rolled onto his side.  the first time he did this was at the doctor and the doctors was like "whoa little guy"!!  He did it again in his bed the other day!  Makes for a nervous Mommy...I have to watch him. 
-He is always pushing off things with his legs...he is so strong for such a little boy
-We got to hear the sound of his sweet laugh while he was sleeping...Wayne was holding him and out of no where came this sweet chuckle accompanied by the biggest smile...must have been having sweet dreams
-He had his first snow the day after Christmas!  He obviously had no clue it was snowing, but still a first!!
-In his first month he has celebrated his First Christmas, First New Years and Mommys Birthday!  Lots of celebrating and partying for this little guy!!
