It's been quite a month! At one month, Josiah has gone to church, a birthday party, a church art event, my first graders' recital, a curriculum planning meeting, four days of first grade (spent mostly in grandma's and Aunt Elizabeth's arms), hung out alternately with daddy, grandpa, and dear friends whilst I taught my college students, and an uncle's graduation! June's looking at little quieter. I am so thankful for the help of family and friends--I've hardly cooked or cleaned all month.
At 6 days, Josiah was 8lbs. 6 oz and 23 inches. At 18 days, he was 10 lbs. 8oz. He's now around 13 lbs. He's been working hard at acquiring a second chin and fat rolls. Needless to say, he's a champion nurser!
Josiah loves to be swaddled and held. He's a squeaky little fellow; if you shift him when he's sleeping, he lets out a series of squeaks and grunts. He's content most of the time--particularly when nestled in someone's arms or the sling--and generally easy to soothe when he cries.
We think he's just adorable!
