The Chambers: December 2010

Mason is one month old!! I can't believe it, it's already going by so fast. Here is Mason's one month picture. I'm going to take the same picture every month with his best friend Ollie the Octopus.

Mason now weighs 7 lbs and 7 ounces. Sometimes it feels like he can't get enough to eat. He eats every 3 hours and every once in awhile he will go 4 hours. Most of the time it's like an alarm clock and he is up every 3 hours. He is nursing and sometimes expressed breast milk so Papa can feed him too :).

He is starting to hold up his head during tummy time or when you are carrying him on your shoulder. He also can turn his head from side to side to look while he is on your shoulder. During tummy time, he just lifts his head and moves it to the other side.

He sleeps in his crib, which is on Mama's side of the bed about one foot away. He loves this :). He sleeps on his back in his favorite Sleep Sack. He sleeps with his head turned to the side and his arms out to the side by his face. He does not like to be swaddled anymore :(. He does like to take cat naps on Papa's tummy.

Also, our little Mason can have quite the temper. He shows off his cute temper when he doesn't get fed fast enough. He kicks his legs and thrashes his arms about. If he is in his bassinet, he can make is rock. I think his temper is soooo cute :). He is just like his Mama, impatient at times.

We love our little man so much :). I am enjoying being a Mom and really don't want to go back to work in January. I don't have a choice though, I have to go back.

I'll update more later on Mason's growth. Our new family is so blessed :).
