One Month

Friday, 11-11-11, Carter turned one month old. Here he is with his proud big sister, who still amazes me with her sisterly love. We have had a few moments where bits of jealousy appeared, but overall she's been wonderful.
Carter has grown lots, I would estimate him to be around 10lbs, but other than that he is not much different from his newborn self. He is finally waking for longer periods, and is usually a content little guy. It is fun to watch him because he is so expressive, his face gives so many clues to how he is feeling. I am still anxiously awaiting his first smile, hopefully it will happen soon.
During the day he is eating around every 2 hours and at night he goes anywhere from 2-4 hours. I've been able to sleep between the nighttime feedings so it hasn't been too bad.
Caroline wanted her picture taken, so here is her sweet face.

Finally, a nursery tour. These pictures do not do the room justice, I think it really turned out cute.
My very talented mother in law did the curtains and the bedding. I love it so much!
Next to his bed Justin built a tree, we currently use it to hold all his hats.

I can't wait to hold my sweet Baby Carter. I miss him so much and I am not much of a Pa Pa. I will be there soon. Miss you guys and dream of the day I and Andrea and will all be in the same place. Love DAD
