Well this month has been a long one! The first few weeks seemed to fly by but these last couple weeks have been hard and quite taxing for both of us. Being on our own has it's ups and downs. We are free to do whatever we want everyday but we don't have anyone to wait on us hand and foot. It's just me and Colby for the next few weeks. We are looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with Justin, Mollie and her family down in Redondo Beach this year. It should be a lot of fun and we'll meet lots of new people.
Colby had his one month check up on the 18th of this month. He now weighs 8lbs 5 oz. He is 21 3/4 inches long and his head is 14 inches around. He is growing perfectly. He is still just a perfect little boy, except for the screaming, haha! He holds his head up really well for being so young and he loves to look around the room. He has already started to roll onto his side so I'm sure he'll be rolling over before too long. The doctor also said he was looking like he wanted to crawl!! Probably my favorite thing is the nights when he just doesn't seem to want to be put down. He and I cuddle and he usually ends up sleeping on my chest. He's one hot little guy but I don't mind waking up sweaty when my little man sleeping with me! It's the best face to wake up next to.
Our upcoming schedule:
Thanksgiving in Redondo
Stephanie visits Dec 13-16
We leave for Washington Dec 17th for Christmas with the Grandparents and the rest of my family.
Jan 5th we head back home and I go back to work on the 6th.
I'm definitely not looking forward to leaving Colby and going back to work but the bills have to get paid right? Well he's in his swing right now and just woke up. Time to see if he's ready to move into bed. Cross your fingers for me.

Can't wait to get my hands on this little cutie at Christmas. Keep the pictures coming!
