Hello Bennett

1 month already? Seriously? Am I going to say that every month? Probably.

Sigh, I forgot how absolutely wonderful a newborn baby could be. Thank you for reminding me of that with your sleepy sounds and sweet cooing...Your little balled up fists and the way you open and close your fingers on my back when you're resting on my shoulder....Collapsing like a sack of flour...Your shifty eyes darting all around the room...And towards the end of this first month, smiling! Sometimes just a side smirk or sometimes a big, silly grin that scrunches those eyes closed...This month has been a pure blessing.

I'm sorry your sleep is so rudely interrupted by gas. I'm sorry your brother dragged Battleship onto your head. I'm sorry you often accidentally grab a fistful of your own hair and won't let go. I'm sorry you fell off the couch. (I honestly thought you were just making cute, baby talking noises to Graham and I when we were making breakfast...woops.)

You are a handsome little man. Your full head of wavy hair gets you a lot of attention in the grocery store. You are a great eater and are becoming a big guy already! The doctors were so impressed. You are a splendid napper and go back to sleep after you eat in the night... Thanks for that. 

We can't wait to see your personality unfold in the coming months... Love you, littlest.
