Sleeping

Steve put Hunter down for a few minutes so he could put laundry away. When he returned, this is what he found. Sleeping.

Hunter - 1 Month Old (Post 2 of 2)

Hunter is 1 month old today! Time sure does fly! Things are going well!

A few things about Hunter:

• Is a great eater! He nurses like a champ and is pretty quick too! He also gets one bottle per day and does well with it. (Mommy really, really wants him to like the bottle so she can have a break once a day! Haley never took a bottle. )
• Is a great sleeper at night! I get one 6 hour stretch a night. He went 7 hours two nights ago. I'm hoping this trend continues and that soon he will sleep through the night. So far I watched the entire last season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey while nursing at night. Love my trashy tv at 3 or 4 am!
• Is a pretty good napper! He will take one or two multi-hour nap per day! He isn't a fan of me putting him down in his crib awake as it leads to some fussing. I'm sure we will be sleep training come his 4 month birthday!
• Is super sweet! He loves to be held and peek over your shoulder when holding him upright! His facial expressions are just starting and are so cute! He has smiled a few times and it just melts my heart!
• Is big! I weighed myself holding him and then alone this morning. Keeping in mind that my scale rounds to the nearest 0.5lb, he weighed 11.5lbs. Big boy. He is filling out his 0-3 month clothes and will be in 3-6 month clothes soon!
• Is loved by his big sister! Haley loves playing with him! It is so cute to see her lay under the play gym with him! She is so excited to see him when I pick her up from school! I only hope they become the best of friends!

Hunter's Newborn Photos (Post 1 of 2)

Hunter had his first photo shoot when he was 10 days old! We used Tiffany Parrot Photography who also did our family photos last Fall. She did a great job! Hunter was not the most cooperative but the photos turned out great! To view the photos, click here. The password is Hunter. Enjoy!

P.S. If I get 20 comments on the sneak peak photo, click here, I get a free 8x10. Please leave a quick comment!

Grandpa Tom & Grandma Sue

Grandpa Tom & Grandma Sue left today after a 6 day visit! It was so nice to have them here! Haley enjoyed all the extra attention! Grandpa Tom and her really utilized their crafty skills in doing lots of coloring! Grandma Sue really enjoyed lots of cuddles with Hunter!

We had my parents over too on Saturday night for dinner. Here are the two Grandmas enjoying a cosmopolitan!

Haley wore her Halloween gear to school on Monday! Love the shirt! Thanks Cousins for thinking of her!

Haley is still doing very well with Hunter! Not too much jealousy!
