Justin is One Month Old



Justin is one month old! I can't believe a month has gone by since we were in the hospital. Time has blurred by.

Here of some of Justin's milestones:
- Weight 6lbs 13oz
- Length 19 inches (as of 2wk appt, he's got to be 20" now)
- Eats only once or twice a night now
- Focuses his eyes more on objects
- Holds his head up momentarily
- Does mini push ups when on his tummy
- He can switch back and forth between bottle and nursing
- We went for a walk in our stroller for the first time today

Likes:
- Looking at the blinds and the ceiling fans
- Sleeping belly down with legs all tucked up into his little body on my belly (reminds me of being pregnant)
- Eating his fist or an occasional finger or thumb
- His little bear mobile which plays "Rock-a-Bye Baby"
- Listening to us play Rock Band (Seriously, he falls asleep every time)
- Listening to his Jewel Lullaby CD
- Being tightly swaddled
- To cuddle
- To hold hands

My favorite things about him:
- Holding his hand, well, his hand holding my finger
- His soft, silky hair
- His sweet smell
- Seeing his little eyes meet mine
- Kissing his chubby cheeks
- Hearing all his funny little sounds
- Watching him sleep and seeing his changing facial expressions

Wow! How did that happen sooo fast?? Okay, at least it felt fast to me. We miss you in our ward and hope you are doing well. Justin is ADORABLE!
