One Month!

Hey fans, I am 1 month old today. I cant remember much that has happened the past month, mommy and I have been sleeping a lot. I am certainly happy to be here, finally! Some updates on my stats

• I am so tall! I am over 20 inches now and I certainly love to flail my arms and legs. I also kick daddy and mommy when they hold me. They have big dreams for my height.
• I am getting chunky too! I am over 7lbs 8oz and I no longer fit in my Newborn size onesies or pajamas (but the 0-3 months are too big!)
• I am eating full time with mommy, she supplies the goods!
• Daddy loves changing my diaper. He thinks I'm cute.
• I like my jungle swing. Its a gift from my cousins Zach and Allie. I sleep well in my swing, its peaceful.
• When Mommy holds me on her shoulder to burp me, I can hold my head up! For about 2 seconds! I'm getting stronger everyday.
• I love my cloth diapers, they are soft and cozy. Though I don't wear them at night, Mommy's scared of messes.
• I sleep for about 3-4 hours at a time. I prefer to sleep in someone's arms but sometimes, they trick me and swaddle me really tight and I don't know that no one is with me in the crib. I am too tired to fight it... but they don't fool me.
• I grunt. I think its because they named me after a ferocious animal... it comes naturally. I grunt and gargle and coo with gusto especially if I have to pass gas (no feminine characteristics yet, I even spit up on all things pink... )
• I have a full set of gorgeous eyelashes.
• I still can't figure out how to get my nails short enough; I keep scratching my face! I get really excited right when I start eating and I grunt, gnash my face and squirm until I feel full (Mommy hopes and prays this goes away!). I try to contain myself but I end up scratching all over.
• I love baths, sweet kisses and daddy's humming.
• I can make eye contact and I look for Mom and Dad's voices when I hear them.

I'm aware that its the 2nd of February when I'm typing this but Sunday was a rough night and we were gone most of Monday... we're celebrating her 1 month a day late!
