Folks, do you realize Paolo has been born for over a month now? Yep…it is amazing!

I’m once again very happy to report that Paolo is still doing extremely well. He has broken the 6 lb mark, and he has grown out of the “preemie” outfits and into the “NB” labels — New Born. The funny thing is that he is still not a full term baby. He would have reached the 39th week this coming Tuesday, and he was scheduled to be induced tomorrow 06/30. Obviously, Paolo had other plans…

Outside of the late night feedings, I would say this first month has been pretty easy. So far Paolo has not been fussy at all, and he usually never cries unless it is feeding time or to let’s know it time for a dipper change. Quite nice!

However, I sense things could be a bit different in a few weeks. With both the kids and Ashley off for the summer, he is getting pretty used to being held all the time. (I must add, I’m probably the guiltiest one on this department). But he is just soooo adorable! I noticed, however, that he is getting more and more alert, and more and more aware of his surroundings. He is starting to pick up when he is being brought to his crib, and he is starting to cry just so he is picked up again — can’t blame him though.

All is well during the day…I just hope it doesn’t start to happen during the night.
