Happy 1 Month Preston


I cannot believe you are already 1 month old--time is just flying by! You are such a happy, content baby.  You are nothing but half grins, full gum smiles, or loud "end of the ketchup bottle" toots these days all of which make us smile and laugh.


Happy 1 Month Preston
Things you are doing lately:





  • tracking toys hanging from the play gym/bouncer seat
  • constantly looking and turning your head to watch your big brother
  • you are doing great at holding your head up when we hold you upright or burp you after a bottle.  Those neck muscles are strong just like Baker! (eating 2-3 oz)
  • We had to kick Pamper diapers to the curb because the netting was sticking to your bum which made you scream terribly during diaper changes [not to mention they were making you red :( ]
  • Target diapers are what you are wearing and those seem to keep you dry and not make you have a rash.  You've moved up to size 1 as Newborn was getting a little too snug.
  • Daddy weighed you here at home on our scale and you were weighing in at 9.5 lbs! 
  • You don't mind tummy time for the first 5 minutes and then after that you'd rather be on your back
  • You sleep decently these days.  We were waking up twice a night around 2AM and 4/5AM for feedings but you've done better lately only needing one night feed around 3AM and getting your second feed to around 7AM. 
  • You're sleeping contently in the bassinet of your pack n play in our room but it is only a matter of time until you're going to outgrow it.  Your legs are so long!
  • You sometimes love to be fully swaddled and other times you enjoy your hands by your face.  It's a matter of trial and error to see which one you are feeling like come bed time.
  • You're still wearing newborn clothes although the length in the legs is getting tight on your feet so we've been putting you in some 0-3 month clothes which are a little big but give you more leg room.
  •  You are looking like your big brother more and more everyday!



  • Stretchin!

    Look @ those long legs

    & the faces you make are priceless.  Your "oh is that milk" face

    Your "I know I'm cute" face


    Your "enough pictures already" face
    Here's a comparison shot of Baker at 1 month...
