1 Month Already?!

Our little boy is one month old and I can hardly believe it! With his birth, the holidays and trying to figure out this mommy of two thing, it has just flown by! I am going to try my hardest to blog about Chase's milestones like I did Cambry's but I can already tell its going to be a little more challenging to find time for the computer. Here are a few things I don't want to forget...

* Chase nurses 7 times a day & takes a bottle at 10:00pm from Daddy. He is a slow & sleepy nurser, taking about 45 min per feeding. Hopefully this will speed up as he gets older!

* So far, he is a great sleeper. He sleeps in his crib all night (4 hour stretches right now) and naps in either his crib, swing or where ever else he can catch some sleep. Noise does not bother him at all--in fact, we thing he prefers it!

* He just went through a big growth spurt btwn weeks 3 & 4 that put him out of all his newborn clothes and into all 0-3 month clothing. He is so long that we are about to have to move him to 3-6 mo. sleepers for extra leg room!

* At 3 weeks he weighed 9 lbs 4 oz. We don't have another doctor visit until week 8, so I'm not sure how much he weighs right now.

* He likes his pacifier, but could take it or leave it.

* Chase doesn't mind tummy time. He pushes his head up and can move it from side to side.

* He loves bath time, especially getting his hair washed.

* He likes it when big sister shows him new toys. :)

* Chase is a laid back baby so far & just goes with the flow!

Some of Chase's favorite places to be...












We love, love our little guy and even though its only been 1 month, its hard to picture life without him! We are looking forward to seeing how he changes over this next month!

I'm super impressed that you were able to post. I love his Aggie football swaddling. I've never seen that before! Too cute.

He looks like he's growing a ton, and getting cuter and cuter! Neat pic of him on the tool bench, too! Very creative.

Happy 1 Month Birthday, Baby Chase! You sure are adorable!

Halie, you look beautiful in the picture with Chase! I'm so glad that everything is going well. Love you to bits!

Happy 1 Month, Chase! Drew was a slooooow nurser too, but he sped up eventually. It actually took 4 months for him to speed up (not to scare you)! I'm so glad it's going well for y'all and that you actually had time to post! Awesome. And wow - that football swaddle me is SO cute (but not as cute as the bundle in it)!

What a little cutie! You are doing such a good job updating your blog with two little ones. I love the picture of Chase in the chair with the bear...what a cute look on his sweet face.
