Today Dominic turned one month old! One of his (or our) favorite things to do is to raise his hand(s) for no reason, so we ask him absurd questions that only be answered by raising his hand, look at how silly babies make you! :)
He already looks bigger and much different than he did when he first appeared that morning one month ago. I can’t believe it’s been a whole month! I enjoy coming home from work and seeing him and giving him a hug and a kiss. I can’t wait until he’s a little older and (hopefully) has that “dad is home” excitement.
Not much to say other than that I’m enjoying our new family life and we’re starting to get into a decent routine and of course he’s such an amazing sleeper. Thanks little guy you must’ve known it would be a busy month with my work! He’s also been doing well going out and visiting people and places with us. We’re able to make lunch together and Lori’s been able to take him to her little lunch gatherings also. Last night we were able to have dinner at Donovan’s place and even though he fussed a little it felt pretty good/normal to have Dominic along with us.
Also I have to lift up Lori. I am so amazed by her natural motherly ability. It’s a good comfort to know that the woman you love enough to want to marry and spend the rest of your life with also turns out to be a fantastic, paitent and loving mother. I love you Lori and I don’t know what we would do without you!
Here is one of the earlier (from the first day) photos taken of him, next to a more recent (taken an hour ago) photo of him:
It’s been a life-changingly good month and I’m trying to take as many photos and videos to continue to document the growing / changing of him. Videos aren’t always as interesting so I take them more infrequently and post them even less often, however I promise to post any new videos to this blog (via Vimeo).
WIth regard to photo updates I’ve been adding them to our flickr stream as I dump them off the camera (every few nights or so) so I don’t always post them to the blog that often. So if you want to see the latest photos of Dominic be sure refresh our flickr stream often (or subscribe to the RSS feed here for automatic updates via your google reader).
