Are You Looking At Me?
In the last month, I've taken no less than 1,338 photos of David. I take a few pictures every single day because I want to have a record of his early days where something is changing every moment. I love to capture all of his facial expressions, his tiny little fingers and toes, his beautiful, huge blue eyes, and everything else about him. I have a photo for every day of his life, except for day three. I don't know how long I will keep taking daily photos but I don't intend to stop anytime soon.

Month One
Our little baby turns one month old today. He's been in this world for four weeks. He has grown from 6 pounds 13 ounces to 9 pounds 1 ounce. His hair has turned lighter and grown a lot. His eyes are even bluer than they were when he joined us. Even though I know it's not purposeful, his smiles are already heartbreaking.

Here's a list of google-queries I've made in the last month:

Thrush
Post-partum depression
Over-active letdown
Acid Reflux
Australian-hold
Breastfeeding with a fever
Mastitis
Curdled vs Hindmilk
Breastfeeding and peanutbutter
Gripe water downsides
Newborn stuffy nose relief
Baby massage
Umbilical cord care
Washing poop stains


Most of them were the overactive imagination of a new mom. One month down, millions more to go.

We love you more than words can express, David. Happy one month birthday.
