One Month!!

It has become increasingly difficult to blog with this little guy, so the like ten minute naps he takes, I try to get online and type fast!!

Rowan is already a month old!! (Well five weeks now)... :) Can't believe it! He is the light of our lives and we just love him to pieces! Here are some one month stats and pictures of our little man:

ONE MONTH

- Last Dr. Appointment (two weeks ago) weighing in at 6lbs 8oz and still 19 1/4 inches long! (I'm SURE he is heavier now.... he is on formula and looks to be filling out!)

- Does NOT like to take afternoon naps... sleeps well in AM (well most days) and PM (2-3 hours at a time)... but HATES afternoon sleeping!! Makes for a VERY long day for mommy! We are trying swaddling now, hope this will help!)

- LOVES attention!! He knows when people are near and will let you know when he realizes you are gone! Loves to be held and cuddled, does not like to be put down or be alone!

- Eats every 2.5-3 hrs... and LOVES to eat!! Has never passed up gulping down all three ounces of formula... we usually have to slow him down so he doesn't choke!

- Coos, cries, moans, yells!! He is a really good baby... doesn't have colic, but will cry if you put him down!

- LOVES bath time! Will fall asleep in the tub... then screams when you take him out!

- Doing pretty well with tummy time... still can only handle it for about 5 minutes at a time, but it's something!! He can pretty much hold his head up if you are holding him and for a little bit on mat... getting stronger! Has great hand/eye coordination! If you put him on the play mat he will swing and hit the animals that are hanging! :)

- LOVES white noise... we have a noise maker on all the time it seems... he hates silence!!

- Small smiles, but nothing substantial yet! Can't wait to see him with a big smile!

- Still wearing gloves over hands... he scratches himself constantly with his nails, so he wears them all the time!

- Can turn to his side!! He is a strong little one and can already flip himself to his side when we lay him down!

- Loves the car and walks in the stroller.... so far! He will usually fall asleep... he needs to keep moving!

- So far only likes swing or chair if he is already asleep and doesn't know we are putting him in it! Hopefully he will learn to love them!

WE LOVE HIM!!
