One Month Old

Carter is just over one month old in these pictures. We were finally able to give him baths in water (not just sponge baths). He hated getting sponge baths because he would get so cold, but he absolutely loves baths in his little tub. I think that we enjoy watching him as much as he enjoys the bath! - Doesn't it look like he is waving hello?



Here are some pictures that I took just because. I think he looks at me like I'm crazy for putting him in all different positions and then snapping away. Oh well, he's bound to learn he has a crazy mom sooner or later. Carter definitely liked being on his back much better than his tummy. At one month he had already learned to turn over from his tummy to his back. He hated being on his tummy that much! I was trying to be a diligent Mommy by making sure that he got enough tummy time. He had other ideas. I think that the first time he rolled over it was an accident, but that was enough to teach him that it could be done again. From that point on, anytime I would put him on his tummy, he would just struggle until he would roll onto his back. Oh well, at least he was getting good exercise!







Here's how Carter had to sleep at night. The poor little guy had acid reflux and it wouldn't let him stay asleep. He slept much better when upright in his carrier. He slept in this carrier until he was a little over three months old.
