I can't believe my baby boy is already a month old! Friday was his one month birthday! We celebrated together as a family by going to Friendly's for ice cream (for Miles and I) and searching far and wide for a Mets onesie in Caiden's size. We're taking him to his first game this Saturday!
Here are a few little one month Caiden facts:
- he still loves to sing while he's sleeping and feeding.
- he has an insatiable appetite. He eats every hour (which is cut back from every half hour!)
- he sleeps for 4 hours at night, then eats, sleeps for 2 hours, then eats, and then is up every hour until 9am when he's pretty much up for the day with a few naps mingled in.
- he has such a strong neck and he's so alert! He loves to look around at everything (even though his eyes can't focus on very much). He also has really strong legs. He pushes himself up to stand while you're holding him.
- he smiles A LOT.
- he recognizes his mommy!
- he has gained 3lbs! He now weighs 11lbs.
- his nicknames include: gasman, fussbucket, Caid, C, and baby bundle.
- he LOVES to be swaddled.
- he loves his hands. He likes them moving and in his face constantly. He also loves his tongue!
- his eyes are lightening to a beautiful blue-grey. I love it!
- he still wears newborn diapers. Everyone told us he'd be out of them in 2 weeks max. He also wears newborn onesies but he's got some LONG legs and a TINY waist so currently no pants really fit him. My sister has to take in the waist on his 0-3 month pants!
- he has already moved and has flown on an airplane! And he did extremely well might I add. Not a single tear.
- his cousin Matthew absolutely adores him and wants to be around him and holding him constantly!
- he was blessed on March 27th (post to come).
- he loves to be held, constantly. And he's so snuggly! I love to sit in the rocker and just snuggle him.
- he is the biggest blessing in Miles and my life. We love our little man so much!
I made him that little 1 month onesie. I want to have a picture of him every month to see how much he's growing. He already seems so much bigger than he was when he was born!
