Geoffrey is one month old right now. How in the heck did that happen? He has changed so much!
One thing that has changed is his cry. When we first brought him home he had such a soft little cry, and it has become so much louder and stronger - most of the time, that is a good thing. He is so cute when he cries.
He is becoming more alert and aware. He has started noticing the fish on his aquarium bouncer (in fact, he didn't even like the bouncer at first!), and he can follow things with his eyes in an arc.
He can lift his head pretty high when he does his tummy time, and his neck is still very strong. It is not steady, but it doesn't flop around and I don't have to really worry about supporting it very much.
He sleeps in his Moses basket at night, and he has started sleeping in his Moses basket in his crib. He usually spends the first half of the night with Grant and I in our room in the Moses basket in the pack and play or in his room in the Moses basket in the crib, and the 2nd half of the night downstairs in his Moses basket with Grandma. His longer stretches are 3 - 4 hours.
He is very auditory - he loves singing, listening to Grandpa Bobby's voice on the phone, or listening to the music Grant put on the ipod for him - it is a mix of musicals, Disney, and kids songs.
He is getting so tall and gaining lots of weight. He has big beautiful blue eyes. I love when he stretches - he sticks his butt out (which is accentuated by his cloth diapers) bends his arms under his chin or over his head.
He loves to eat - and does well on both the bottle and Mommy's breast. He is getting better at burping, although gas does seem to give him trouble. He spits up alot and he gets the hiccups often about an hour after he eats. He has been farting, too!
He loves going on walks - we've been around the track, to Central Park, Tewinkle, and the Talbert Nature Preserve, as well as downtown HB for Surf City Nights. He's been to a few restaurants as well - Islands, Sunny's, Pei Wei.
He has started to make other noises, too - not quite cooing - but noisy sighs.
Geoffrey - you have grown so much! We love you!
