Jacob turned one month old yesterday! It's hard to believe that a month has already passed since this precious baby boy was born. So far, Jacob has a very sweet disposition and is a very "good" baby. The only time he gets really cranky is late afternoon/early evening and we have to just let him wear himself out and cry himself to sleep, but other than that he rarely cries. He's on a fairly good three hour schedule and is making it until about 3:00/3:30 am at night and then sleeps until 6:30/7:00 most mornings. I do feel like my children are conspiring against my quest for sleep though. It seems that whenever Jacob has a really good night, Miller will wake up in the middle of the night for some reason {like say, taking off his pullup and wetting his bed :) }. And of course it is never close to the time that Jacob wakes up so just as I fall back to sleep Jacob will wake up. Whenever Miller sleeps all night, Jacob won't go right back to sleep after the middle of the night feeding. Even naps seem that way. I've tried many days during this first month to catch a nap when in the afternoon when both boys are down. Thankfully they usually go to sleep about the same time, but Miller only sleeps about an hour and wakes up screaming "I ready to get out!!!" while Jacob almost always sleeps about three hours. Today, Jacob wouldn't go to sleep {I finally resorted to the vibrating bouncy seat} and Miller took the longest nap of his life. Seriously. It lasted almost three hours. So the moral of the story is... I may never sleep again :)
Here's the little cutie pie on his one month birthday...
Just for comparison sake, here's Miller at one month old...
What do you think? The only resemblance really see is the chubby cheeks. Of course, a lot of babies have those so we may just have to wait and see how much they'll look alike.
Happy one month birthday, Jacob! You have been such a blessing to us these last few weeks and we look forward to many more memories with you!
