One Month Old Already!

Wow! Time is really flying. I can't believe my little man is one month old already! It is going by too fast for me. I love being with him and he seems to change a little bit everyday. We were so excited when he finally made eye contact with us and now sometimes I will catch him just staring up at me. I love it! We have been getting smiles for awhile now but finally managed to catch it on camera. His little smile with his dimple is all it takes to melt my heart. Lets just say that he already has Mommy and Daddy wrapped around his little finger and he pretty much calls the shots around here. We just adore this little guy! He finally gets to have baths in the big tub and he either loves his bath or hates it, depending on his mood and there doesn't seem to be a happy medium. He really is a pretty content happy baby but doesn't really appreciate his diaper getting changed and sometimes he screams! I think I am doing him a pretty big favor by changing him but apparently he would rather lay in his poop all day. He usually goes to bed for the night anywhere between 10:00 and midnight and we have to wake him up for his feedings. We let him go for one 4-5 hour stretch and then the rest of the time we wake him up every three hours. Thats what the doctor ordered so thats what we do. Brogen must know that I get a little cranky when I don't get much sleep and he is really good at sleeping at night. His daddy already loves to pester and tease him and if you notice in the picture below Brogen is hungry and rooting around for food and one of Jared's favorite things is to put his nose up to his lips and sure enough he latches right on! He thinks he is hilarious.

Oh how adorable! I'm so happy for you! He does look so much like jared too. I keep meaning to pick up my phone and schedule coming to see you its just been crazy busy. Which is such an excuse I know. We will be moving in our place next weekend and it should start to slow down after that. Or maybe I'll surprise you guys and pop in. Who knows. LOVE YA!

Such a DOLL!! Ohhh he is so sweet, I just want to kiss his little face off!!! That's awesome he is sleeping good for you already, once they get a little schedule they seem to pretty much stick to it so that's a good sign! Miley would get cranky in the bath if she was hungry, I would have to feed her right before. You guys look so happy, what a cute little family. We're so happy for you guys. I can't wait to come see you all! We'll give you call next time we come over.
