Happy One Month Birthday!

We can't believe it, but Ethan is one month old today!!  We aren't sure where that last month went, but we certainly enjoyed it.  He has increased in weight, length, formula volume and alert periods.  He is smiling more and more frequently (which we love!), and he is beginning to vocalize more consistently.  Ethan seems to study our faces when we talk to him, and he likes (as age-appropriate) highly contrasted objects like a black and white sheep in one of his books, the stripes on his playmat, and our ceiling fans.  He is also getting stronger with his head control, and is getting his hands in his mouth for slightly longer periods at times.  He also is much more relaxed during his baths, now that he can get in his Puj tub, and the hairwashing part is still his favorite!
Here are some of our favorite pics from this past week...






Gam Gam got to keep me for an hour or so while Mommy and Daddy ran errands; this is what we did: snuggle!





I took my very 1st nap in my big boy bed.



 These are from our 1-month do-it-yourself "photo shoot"...





This first month was so amazing and Ethan has grown and learned so much, we can't wait to see what we have in store next.  We continue to feel blessed beyond measure by his presence in our lives.
