This kid is so adorable. Ever since he was born he has had
his eyes wide open, or closed shut, never in between. With those wide open eyes
he always has a look of concern. Nathan said when he was born he must have
sensed the need to be deeply concerned for the world.

| Co-sleeper Nath made! It is brilliant! |
My little cutie was born with hair all over his body! He had
plenty on his head, shoulders, and ears! Now he has lost all the hair on the
top of his head. This is very confusing to us, seeing as how we do not put him
to sleep on the top of his head. He was also born with what I call, “Freddie
Kruger” nails. They are so long and pointy! We haven’t really cut them yet
because we are terrified of cutting his skin and making him bleed! To keep him
from scratching his face we put socks on his hands. We called them his “feet
hands” (insert funny voice here). It is so stinking cute! They didn’t stay on
tremendously well so my mom bought him some mittens that work really well for
him. They are also adorable. Something about trapping his hands is pretty
funny.
We put him to bed every night in his white swaddler that we
got from the hospital. He looks so precious all bundled up! He is still waking
up every 2 hours to feed and sometimes will not fall asleep after a feeding so
Nath often takes him into the living room for some 3am father-son bonding.

| My favorite thing to do |
The mother-son bonding is going well also. I have been peed
and even pooped on pretty often but its all worth it for that lovely smile he
has. He has been smiling since birth really but smiling in reaction to us at
the end of his first month. He is such a fun baby boy!
