Wee Gardner: March 2005

March is coming to a close

Please accept our apologies. It has been a busy month. Our family moved into a more spacious home over Spring Break and Internet access has been limited, which is the reason that posts have decreased. Hopefully, we will be able to update the blog more regularly, as we settle into our routines.

Harrison is growing rapidly. He looks more like a three month old than a child who is little over a month old. He has decided that the ceiling fan in Mommy’s and Daddy's room is just the coolest. His ability to watch it spin around is right up there with having his diapie changed and is almost certain to produce a smile. Mommy's time at home with Harrison is nearing an end and soon Daddy will take off for paternity leave. It should prove to be an interesting time, as Harrison has begun to show definite signs of mommyitis. Daddy has found that swaddling him snuggly and giving him a pacifier works wonders. Washing his hair and brushing it also helps with fussy times.

If you have any other suggestions for calming a baby who is longing to nurse an absent mommy, please feel free to post. FYI…No, we haven't seen "Meet the Fockers" and though it has been suggested that we follow the ingenuity of a particular scene, I really think Cubby’s chest is too hairy to pull it off. LOL

First Well Check at One Month

10lbs 4oz

I finally got to meet my pediatrician, “Dr. Juice”, today. (Affectionately named by Piper) Mommy’s milk must be magical! I have gained 3lbs 4oz and grown to 22inches.
