"I Hear Babies Cry and I Watch Them Grow"



Dear Gabe,

Happy 1 month birthday Munchkin! I can't believe how quickly (and at times slowly) this month has gone! You've changed so much over this last month. For one you are so strong- you're always lifting your head up and trying to look around. You're much more alert- after we feed and change you you're pretty alert for the next 30-45 minutes until you're ready to be put to sleep again. Your dad and I have learned over this past month that you definitely do not like to be wet...which means bath time and diaper changes aren't exactly your favorite things. On the other hand you love love love white noise especially Mommy's hairdryer. You also love your swaddle blanket. You like Mommy's arms the best but love spending time with Daddy watching sports and Jeopardy in the evening. You also like being outside. If you're fussy going outside will instantly calm you down. You're eating 4 ounces about every 3-4 hours. You suck that bottle down in no time flat which has earned you the nickname Piglet. Piglet is actually just one of your many nicknames. I often call you Munchkin, Munch, Munchy Muncherson, Sweet Potato and Sweet Boy. You dad calls you Big Man and Mr. Gabe. We're still trying to figure out who you look like. You're long and lean like your daddy but have you chubby cheeks like me. Thanks Gabe for making this past month the most amazing month of our lives. Oh and thanks for sleeping 4 hours straight last night!!!
Much Love,
Mommy and Daddy
