A month already?!

Little Isaac turned one month old yesterday.  I can hardly believe it.  I know that sounds cliché, but really, it seems like he was just born the other day.  At the same time, so much has happened in the last month.  For one thing, he's gotten really big!  He weighs about 10 lbs already, although I don't know exactly, but he's really starting to get some fat on him.

He's not a paci baby, much to his father's dismay, but he's a great sleeper (at least he is during the day).   He sleeps through all kinds of running and fighting and playing all day long.  I keep joking that we need to have Micah and Jadon run through the house in the middle of the night to get him to sleep better.

For the most part, he's really a happy baby.  He really only cries when he's in the carseat.  This is the face he makes as soon as he's buckled in.

Yesterday, he cried most of the way home from Camp Akita.  That's really too bad since we have to drive 20 minutes just about anywhere we go.  Hopefully, he'll get a little more accustomed to that soon.


This is Zac's favorite place to sleep. (Sorry for the fuzzy picture, but that's what happens when the 7 year old has the camera)

I made a bunch of these slings before he was born and we both just love them.  It's a really great alternative since he hates the carseat so much.  And he's certainly easier to carry around than lugging that heavy seat everywhere.

The big kids just love having a baby brother.  They are all eager to help and are constantly asking to hold him.  Every once in a while, the ugly green monster rears its head, but not very often.  I'm sure the day will come, but we're all having a great time right now.  Hopefully that will last a long time.
