One Month...Already!

Where have the days gone? Tyler is growing strong. He is one month old. He now weighs 9lbs.1oz. and is 21 inches long. He has moved up a size in diapers and has grown out of some clothes already. I put the outfit we brought him home from the hospital in away already. He is almost out growing his newborn clothes too. He is starting to get on a routine. Aunt Lindsay has been helping with that. She came to visit on Tuesday and is sadly leaving tomorrow. She went with us yesterday to a breastfeeding support group at Glendale Memorial Hospital and is helping Tyler to eat the right way. Thanks Aunt Lindsay. The group has been fun because there are other new moms there.In the last week Tyler has been a lot of places and done a lot. He went to the Rose Bowl with some of his friends from the support group. He rode in the front pouch while I walked around the Rose Bowl. Not such a good idea for me...I was so tired after. It is a 3 mile walk. He went to pick out a Christmas tree. He slept the whole time. He also went to Michael's and Target. He loves to shop:) Again...he slept through that too. Last night he slept 5 hours straight:)
"Dear God please help my mom learn to feed me." -Tyler
My first Christmas:) Mom and Dad's Christmas present came early.
Here's bugaboo wide eyed and taking it all in.
I love my Aunt Lindsay! She helps Mommy with lots of things around the house.

AMEN to that Becca! Even though I did it for a year with Micah, it took me some relearning for about a month to get it right with Aiden and toughen them up =). Before you know it, you'll be doing it with your eyes closed, no problem. We have yet to meet him and we hope to soon. He's so much different looking after a month. Very alert in his shots. Blessings this Christmas to you three!

So proud of you! You're doing such a fabulous job--the love you show him on a daily basis is already shaping him into a man of God! Love you and praying for you to continue to endure (and maybe rest every now and then too:)
