cole: 1-month old

i'm not going to lie, the first few weeks with our little guy were tough. he's such a good baby, i'm just such a rookie mom.

sleep deprivation causes crazy things to happen. namely tears. cole usually eats every 3 hours (and some days, every hour!) and the feeding process can take up to 1 1/2 hours, with nursing, burping, diaper changing, rocking, singing, loving. it doesn't leave much time for sleep -- or showers, or eating, or laundry, or blogging. my needs are no longer a priority. it's all about baby cole.

even though my life has been measured by 2-3 hour increments, somehow time really has flown by. wow - my baby is 4 weeks old! i'm slowly becoming more confident in my abilities as a mom. we're beginning to get our routine figured out and i'm starting to understand cole's cries, movements and expressions. we're becoming a team.

here's a celebratory pic of my little boy blue ...

(thanks to my aunt bethany for the super plush pj's, nicole for my personalized blankie, and my abuelita for my first teddy bear)

happy 1-month birthday, baby cole. mommy loves you.
