*The first month is such a blur...well lets say we "survived". We discovered Parker is a happy baby once he is fed, burped and changed and absolutely hates a pacifier. At three weeks old he began sleeping in his crib and has been a trooper with that ever since. At his one month appointment he weighted 8 lbs and 10 ounces (25%) and 21 inches long. It was so sad seeing him get his first shot, I wished at that moment I took his pain from him. During this month he began to focus on Corey and I, loved his first bath, loves his swing and was read Brown Bear Brown Bear by Eric Carle for the first time. On 12/20/09 he was baptized at Christ Luthe
*January 2010-
During this month so much as changed with Parker. He is becoming more observant within his surroundings...forget about laying him on his belly, he wants sit up or should I say he wants to pull himself up working his core to see what is going on around him. His personality is beginning to come out...as we see him smiling more and trying to laugh (well inhaling air is considered his laugh right now). Mommy returned
Feb. 2010- Parker is weighing in at 10lbs and survived once again more shots. Our last appointment it was Corey's first time watching his boy receive them and well mommy and daddy both teared up. Parker has mastered sleeping in his crib and sleeping through the night. Mommy and daddy love our little guy so much for giving us enough shut eye as well. Corey and I are a great team and share all the parenting duties for both Parker and Lilly. We have a rotating schedule during the week and weekends which is nice and is working out quite well. Parker continues to be a happy baby and will get fussy at times but overall loves to interact with those around him, especially mommy, daddy, and Nana. He is starting to sit up
Lilly is also adjusting to having Parker around. She is becoming more protective and anybody that comes over well is greeted by her first (licks and wagging tail) but will be by whomever is
I think I pretty much covered everything that has happened with Parker in these three months since his arrival. I plan on keeping our blog updated so it will inform everyone close to us on how Parker is doing and watching him grow! For now love to yall!
