Johnny is 4 weeks old today!!



Johnny is 4 weeks old today (1 month old this Sunday)! Can you believe it? He is growing fast and is already out of newborn clothes and onto 3 months already (a bit big, but pretty much fitting). He is 10+ lbs now and his next Dr. visit is in another month. We plan to get our baby photos done in the next couple weeks and will be able to share some of those soon. His eyes are grey, but I am thinking the blue will start to appear. He is an amazing baby and we are filled with love and happiness every day. He sleeps pretty well and cries when he's hungry and tired. We are starting to understand his behaviors and signs a bit more every day. I see many outings once he gets a bit older to go and see friends and just show him the world. So many wonderful things to look forward to.

We have tried to save his special first moments in a few pics below.

 I dont have a picture of it, but Nicole Beeman was the first to visit us in the hospital and she was also the person who guessed Sept. 30th as the due date. Here is a pic of Nicole, but at a later date.

What can we even say...... A true miracle, made out of so much love. In these first few days, I already know how special he is to us and will be to all of you.

I plan to post at least every month and maybe more. I'm excited to share every moment of our lives with Johnny. He is too cute and so far a very good baby.

We love you Johnny !!
