One Month Older, and Wiser Too....

It's hard to believe that James has been with us for a month now! Quite honestly, it is still a bit surreal to have a baby in the house. For Becky, there is nothing more shocking than being woken up in the middle of the night so the little man can have a mid-night snack. Nonetheless, we are so excited and happy to have been blessed with James, and are happy that he is healthy and strong. As can be seen by this photo, he is definitely not camera shy either. He loves to strike a pose, and smile too. I think it has something to do with his MVP outfit (doesn't he look like a little slugger?) You can see that compared to his little pillow, he has grown significantly since we brought him home from the hospital. I guess going from 9lbs (post-hospital weight) to 12 lbs at the end of his first month really shows. Just to put it into perspective, that kind of growth is like an adult going from 150 lbs to 190 lbs in 1 month ( I wouldn't recommend recalculating this, lest you be just as nerdy as Brian). He is our little precious man, and we love to watch him grow.....and sleep. In the words of his Grandma Fila, doesn't he look like a little lamb? He is so excited to meet all of his aunts and uncles at Christmas time.
