1 Month Old


Our little man turned one month old on June 16th! Time has sure flown by. We are enjoying watching him grow and change. As of June 15th he weighed in at 9lbs. 10oz. He is a good little eater. He seems to be mostly gaining length and not a lot of girth. I guess we shouldn't be surprised by this considering that his mom and dad are both tall and lean (well.. mom is working on getting back to that). His newborn outfits are getting to be too short but most of his 0-3s are still a little too big around. We'll get there. :) He is losing his newborn look more and more everyday. It is a little sad but exciting. He still gets up around once every 3 hours at night to eat.. so that can wear a person down, but I think it is just part of raising a baby.

Emmett Robert, we love...
Your little half smiles that give us a glimpse into how fun your "real" smiles will actually be.
How content you are to snuggle up on one of our chests for a snooze.
That when you cry it is normally for a good reason (usually hungry or needs to burp).
Your beautiful skin that everyone comments on.
Your still full head of dark brown hair.
How we can see that your eyes are turning into what we think will be dark brown.
The way you perk up at the sound of Mom or Dad's voice.
Your loud toots and burps.
The way you grunt and stretch.
Your funny facial expressions.
The way you like to put your hands on your face at almost all times.
Looking forward with you to your future. :)
