1 Month Old!

Yesterday was Emerson’s 1 month birthday… this past month has flown by! I feel like he’s growing so much each day. His newborn clothes actually fit him now—at first everything was so baggy. It’s funny because most of the clothes I bought were either 0 –3 or 3 – 6 month sizes, but hardly any newborn sizes, as I was anticipating a huge baby, lol. Skinny little E fits just right into that NB size.  Happy first month!

Such a handsome boy…

We also thought it’d be fun to take a picture in this chair each month and see how he grows. Right now he’s still trying to sit up by himself… let’s hope he can soon sit here.

He's adorable. I like the chair idea.

That is funny he just fits newborn stuff. Both of my babies fit in their 0-3 right off the bat! Well, it makes sense, Steve was almost 11 lbs. So my two 8 pounders are just right.

You won't believe what the next month will bring. That chair is going to get smaller so fast!

How cute is that picture of him lounging in the chair! Great idea to take pictures as he grows. I love him!

What a cutie! I love his little outfit too. It's nice when they don't grow too fast because you get to use their clothes more than once. I hope adjustment to parenting life continues to go well for you.
