Done with One?

1 month has come and gone for our little Ramsey, and he continues to be such a good baby!  I almost don't even want to say it out loud (or type it) because then I may ginx it.  He has been nursing well, gaining weight, and sleeping in at least 3 hour stretches at night.  No complaints from this mama!

In fact, yesterday I was telling a friend that I didn't mind waking up for him during the night (especially when I don't have to get up for work at 5AM) and then last night he slept for 6 hours straight!  I don't expect that again any time soon.

We went for his 1 month check-up today and the doctor was very pleased with his growth!  

Weight: 9 lb. 3oz. (31%)

Height: 21.75 in. (71%)

Head: 14.75 in. (70%) 

 
Even when we were taking these pictures, he didn't quiver a lip.  I remember trying to take Brooks' 1 month pictures and he screamed the whole time!
We're making sure the boys stay true to mama's alma mater!

Ramsey and I also put the Moby Wrap to use!  We finally had a pretty day outside so I was able to hold Ramsey and play with Brooks.  I was so proud of myself for getting it on correctly!                                                                                   Brooks is continuing to be a big help with his Bubba!  He has been helping to clean up, throw things away, and give Ramsey his passy.  


Additionally, Brooks is starting to try singing the alphabet, saying his prayers, and singing other songs with his Mama.  He usually only gets a few words correct, but he mumbles the rest and stays on beat.  It makes me smile every time!  I love how he tries without worrying if he gets it wrong.  There's something for us to learn from him!  


My heart melting family!  Which reminds me, one of my favorite moments happened last night.  I put Brooks to bed and as I walked out of the room he said, "I yuv you Mama."  I said "I love you too" and walked out.  Then he said, "Wait Mama... I yuv you."  He repeated this 3 times as I walked out each time, throwing in a "Come back!" every so often.  He is just beginning to put sentences together and say I love you on his own, so I gave into him a few times before I called it quits for the night :)
