The 1st Month

     Amazing how time has flown by!  Sawyer is a month old already (be aware I will probably post this at every month!)  Everyday Keith and I say how lucky we are to have Sawyer in our lives...and how cute he is (though we may be SLIGHTLY prejudice!)
     This month we were able to spend the first 3 weeks home together as a family!  Keith took 3 weeks off work and it was wonderful to be together...learning all about our little man!  We have been learning how to feed and change him, where he likes to sleep, and most importantly how to hold him (it sounds crazy but when they are this little they have a little bobble head!)  It's amazing how quickly Sawyer was to a feeding schedule...every 2 hours flat!  If he was sleeping he would wake up exactly at the 2 hour mark.  We would joke that he has a built in Timex in that little body.  After Sawyer eats he falls asleep for a few hours.  During this time we are busy getting Thank You cards written, bottles cleaned and filled and I pump.  We have been diligently trying to get Sawyer to breastfeed but he wants nothing to do with it.  So, we have decided to pump everything and feed through the bottle.  I think this will work out great because it will give Keith and our mom's the opportunity to feed him too.  It might be double the work...but it's worth it!
     We have been trying tummy time for just a couple of minutes each day....but Sawyer doesn't care too much for it.  We can tell he is a pretty strong baby by how he tries to hold his head up while on our shoulders and when he holds onto our fingers his grip is pretty tight.  Enjoy the pictures I have included for the 1st month.....
What a little BLESSING!
