Happy One-Month Birthday, Owen!

It's hard to believe one month has passed since our little man was born. It's amazing to watch him develop, to learn what upsets him and what soothes him. 

Owen is sleeping for about two hours at a time (so Mommy & Daddy are pretty tired), and when he's awake, he is very alert and seems to be happiest when he is upright and can look around the room. He's beginning to use his hands - grabbing my hair and holding on to his bottle. He loves bath time (maybe we have another little fish!) and is usually very content to just hang out with the family.



Ainsley is a terrific big sister. She's very excited about Owen -- when talking to Papa on the phone, she told him, "It's awesome to have a baby brother in the house!" And when we picked up Grandma at the airport, she announced, "I'm not the only one in the backseat anymore!"  She helps us by giving Owen a pacifier or singing to him when he gets fussy. She'll even hold him to keep him calm if I need to grab something in another room.

She loves to hold him and often gives him sweet hugs and kisses. It's so heartwarming to watch her with him - she has such a big & loving heart.
