One Month Older and Mom's Wiser Too

Zane is one month old and growing every day! He's been a wonderful helper as we have been moving. In his short little lifetime, he has already taken two 28 hour round-trip car rides as we've moved back and forth from Washington! Not many newborns can say that they still love their carseat after being subjected to that!

At one month old, Zane is 23 inches long and weighs around 10 pounds. He loves to suck on his fingers, is just barely beginning to smile socially, and is absolutely terrified of stuffed animals. He loves long naps, rides in his carseat, and giggles from mom. He hates getting dressed and gets a very serious face whenever I pull out a camera.

Zane is still wearing newborn clothing and newborn diapers. His tongue-tie is proving difficult, but he is slowly starting to get his chunk on! He is the best little alarm clock: I know exactly when it is 11:00 am, 3:00 am, and 6:00 am because that is when he wakes up demanding food. This kid doesn't mess around when it comes to eating. He is like a grumpy diner that just wants his food this instant!!!

Aside from that, Zane hardly ever cries, has the most serious eyebrows, and the longest legs. We are still absolutely in love. Less hygienic and more tired, but absolutely in love. Thank you for teaching me that I can be patient even at the butt-crack of dawn and that showers don't really matter as much as my mom said they did when I was little.
