One month old!

Today Grady is one month old....it is crazy how much he has grown and changed over the past month. He has started to smile and really has gotten quite a cute personality. Josh and I are adjusting to parenting and our new roles as mom and dad! It is hard to imagine our life without Grady, and before Grady for that matter. It seems that we have always had him. He has truly been such a blessing in our lives.

Highlights of the first month --
  • Bringing him home from the hospital and realizing that we can do this on our own!!
  • Grady sleeping pretty much through the night since we brought him home! Incredible, we know!!
  • Watching him smile for the first time.
  • ALL the cuddle time (he is a VERY snuggly baby)
  • All the "firsts so far"...bottle, overnight trip, shopping trip, smile, holding his head up strong, bath, recognition of mom and dad, losing umbilical cord, etc, etc.
  • The moment that breatfeeding didn't hurt like CRAZY!!
  • Dressing him in all those cute little outfits (well this is maybe Mom's favorite :) !!)
  • Realizing how quickly you can fall so incredibly in love with someone.
  • Many many laughs, usually regarding Grady pooping, peeing, or puking on us....hee hee, especially Dad!
  • All the love, support, and kindness that we received from our wonderful family and friends!
