A Month of You

Likes: walks in the park, being snuggled against Mom 24/7, wild bouncing, filling diapers like it's a contest, workin' that charming half-smile, practicing colic in the evenings, snacking, rivaling the crazy Uncle in "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days," revving your motorcycle engine with one foot, sharing the love with big brother, kickin' it with arms wide open, the bear rattle, visits from family and friends, laying on his right side, bicycle exercises, white noise, shopping for hours, the Baby Bjorn, tush pats, the great outdoors, silly sounds, reading books, propping on adult shoulders and more.

Dislikes: car rides and the seat required to do so, swaddled arms (a man's gotta move!), drinking from a fire hose, consuming all those colic and gas meds, hep B shots, baths, pacifiers (takes some convincing), wind in his face, nail trims, visiting the salon, taking big brother to daycare in the morning (would prefer to sleep in - ahm, so would Mom) and more.

Tricks: snorting like an elephant when disgruntled, attempting a rollover and smile, burrito kicks in the swaddle, fart contests, squeaky cries and chats and more.

Squeak: this has been everything we've dreamed of and more - thank you for four weeks of mystery, magic and ok, some misery. We love you and can't wait to see what's next!
