Owen's 1st month





Our little man is one month old! He has grown so much and his little personality comes out more and more every day. The sleeping pattern was great, he knew when it was day and definitely slept deeper in the night, until he had his snip snip procedure and all the Lidocaine (Yes,Lidocaine,she used about 4cc, our Dr. kept saying its the same stuff used at the dentist, I laughed and then thought holy cow he isn't going to feel a thing) running through is tiny body and the trauma of getting shots down there, well he was worn out and slept the ENTIRE day. So since then we have been having parties about 12:30 to 3 or 4.
His blonde hair is still blonde and his eyes have stayed the dark slate blue. He is gaining weight and finally filling out those long chicken legs. At the last doctors' visit he was 11 lbs 4oz and 22 inches. He is still sweet as ever, and full of smiles and little squawks and squeaks with not a whole lot of crying. I am hoping to have his room done by the end of this week, we just moved and everything is still getting unpacked. I am excited for him to see his little jungle mobile, he already gets a kick out of the swirling birdies on his swing.We also finally chose a stroller so Owen and I can get back into shape. He really liked our first walk together but since that first night the wind gusts have been outrageous and he gets so stuffed up with all the dirt and pollen, he was not a happy camper the last few tries.

Lovin' the little man! Oh, I remember so clearly Max's snip snip procedure. The doctor said before he started, "In some rare cases we have excessive bleeding and have to keep it compressed for a longer period of time..." 20 minutes after the painful procedure, Max finally stopped bleeding and I was FINALLY able to pick him up and love him. It was so traumatic. Maybe more for me than for him? Hard to tell.

Owen is so stinkin' cute! I wish that we could hang out together, Jame. I won't be in Vegas until Christmas time. :( But thank goodness for the internet so that I can see him growin' up!

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
