Micah at One Month


Micah turned one month old yesterday. We decided on Mr. Giraffe for his month-a-versary pictures. I'll probably say this each month, but it's flown by!

A few observations:
-Definitely not going to be a permanent paci child. It helps him get to sleep sometimes, but you have to convince of its merits. He makes a really nasty face at you and you have to hold it there.

- Prefers a cradle hold or Jonathan's sleeper hold or flipped on his stomach.

-Speaking of getting to sleep, it's been a little bit harder to do with him these days. He normally fusses for a bit before succumbing to a nap. The good news is he stays sleeping longer than Josiah, who was notorious for the 45-minute snooze. However, Josiah used to conk out in his car seat almost instantly, but Micah still needs some convincing once there (i.e. pacifier).

-Has a great grip and strong kick.

-Sleeping OK at night. Not great, not terrible.

-Gets burps lodged really deep. He doesn't spit up as much as Josiah, but you have to work really hard at his burps.

Hooray for Mr. Giraffe! Does this mean you're expecting him to be tall? Did you know that Giraffes start life with a six foot drop? I'm sure he'll get Micah boy well through his first year.
