Hi Everyone,
Thursday was my 1 month birthday. Wow, where has the time gone?!?!? I thought I'd share a few of the things I've accomplished in my 31 days of life on the outside:
- I can sleep up to 5 hours through the night (not consistently--but my mom and dad appreciate it when I do!)
- I can eat out of a bottle, a syringe and feeding tube, a cup and have had some success at the breast
- I can squirm off of a pillow (see photos below)
- I can smile albeit selectively at this point--people think I'm really cute when I do!
- I can fill my diaper pretty regularly!
- I can look around as though discovering the world around me for the first time
- I can enjoy a good book (when it's read to me--my dad is great at doing that)
- I can now fill out my Newborn sized outfits--finally!!
- Nap, snooze and sleep!
- Cuddle!
Well, that's at least a few of the things I'm doing these days. My days are indeed full!
For my 1 month birthday, my mom made a cake--yellow cake with milk chocolate icing and sprinkles too. I got to taste it 24 hours after my mom and dad had their piece (through the milk that is). Pretty tasty! You can see a photo of the happy family with the cake.

Look how far I got--all by myself
