One Month At A Time

Sweet Baby John, 

Time is flying baby boy, much faster than expected and certainly faster than desired.  Our family is finding its place as a family of four, and we couldn't be happier to have you in our lives. As we are now approaching 6 weeks, I love taking in the tiny changes that happen as you grow day by day. 

I won these ties right before you were born and look forward to taking your pictures each month. Perhaps by next month I'll have it all together and have a non-wrinkled blanket or piece of fabric for our little photo shoot. As for now, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that all one notices is your beautifully handsome little face.

You are physically strong and wowed Dr. G with your kicking legs acting ready to crawl as you demonstrated tummy time and head lifting and turning at your appointment.

If your feelings about diaper changes are indicative of anything, I believe you will have a passionate little personality as you grow. You certainly let us know how you feel about them.

 You are one long little baby. In the 25th percentile for weight and 80th for height, we'll certainly have some wardrobe issues just like we do with your brother. I wouldn't trade you long little boys for anything though.

You've been here a month, dear boy, but our hearts feel like you've always been a part of us.
May God continue to bless you as you grow, and may you always know how very loved you are.
