henry is one month old!

 our sweet little love bug is a month old today
i am completely in love with him
he is such a darling boy and i am so happy to have him in our family
i'm trying to suck up all his newborn-ness 
i hate how quickly this part passes
look at those little crossed legs! 
 at one month, henry is so close to smiling at me
sooo close! and i'm so excited!
he is getting more mellow all the time which is nice and sleeping for longer stretches 
he often sleeps for about 4 hours between feedings
sadly the same is true during the day and night 
last night after 4 hours of sleep from 10-2 he wouldn't fall asleep again for two more hours!
 i'm so tired but i wouldn't trade it for a thing
when henry gets sad he is quick to pout his bottom lip and it is completely adorable
reminds me of noah
when he's distressed he gets a dent in his forehead
after a bath, his hair gets super fuzzy
he loves to study things and is super alert
he hates the car less and less (thank goodness)
and loves to grab my hair by the handfuls 
....
and just for funsies...here's a picture from this morning
after all the kids (except eleanor) climbed into bed with me

picture me petting your bed like Toby patted the Christmas robe(s) that he was shortchanged.
