Month Two - All Smiles

Logan is starting to become more awake and observe the world around him.  He loves being talked to and often smiles back now.
We've gotten the nighttime routine down now that he's co-sleeping in the big bed.  He's so warm and cuddly!  When he wakes up needing a feed I usually just feed him with him next to me and he falls straight back to sleep.  Because of that I've been getting more sleep too!
He's starting to enjoy diaper changes more and hardly cries during them now (unless he's hungry) so I always feed then change.  Wai-gong and Wai-po takes him for a walk to Washington park almost everyday which he really enjoys. Biggest challenge is still car rides and because Logan almost always cries the longest we've driven to with him in the car is 20 minutes or so.  I hear him waking up now... better go!

One Month - Little Grunter

Logan's first month went by so quickly.  Doctor's check up went well (height 22 inches; weight 10 pounds 6 ounces).  He eats very regularly (every 3 hours) and usually has a nap after each feeding.  He's starting to open his eyes more though doesn't quite track objects yet.

Logan doesn't cry much, but he likes to grunt, a lot.  It's his preferred way of communication and he makes this really deep grunt from the back of his throat.

The thing I'll probably miss the most is how right after a meal, he'll curl his back backwards for a good stretch (almost bending back 90 degrees and sticking his bum out).  The cutest thing in the world that only newborns do.
