One Month Old!

I can't believe a month has gone by already! He is getting so big and changing every day! There have been challenging days but I wouldn't trade it for the world! He focuses on his favorite toys and your face if you are talking to him. I swear he's been smiling for a few weeks already but some might argue it is just gas. With this boy, it might be :) He likes to pee on people, especially grandmas and aunts... and the wall next to his changing table. April had a hard time at first but we never really discussed sleeping arrangments prior to his arrival so kicking her out of the room and keeping her downstairs was a little tough on everyone. I would wake up to feed Matthew in the middle of the night and I could hear her crying. We discovered that she just wants to be close to us and is happy sleeping on a little bed on the floor in our room. She loves her brother. Matthew still sleeps in our room too. We had him in his crib one night but it seemed to be worse than him sleeping with us. So for right now, he will stay with us. He sleeps really well in a rock n play next to our bed. He only wakes up once in the night to eat most of the time. He is such a good boy! I can't wait to see what he learns next month!
