31 days ago, at this posting, I was about 30 minutes old. It has been a wonderful month. I am figuring out all kinds of things. I can turn my head when I am laying on my tummy. I also love grunting really loud. (Dad says it is better out than in!). My mom thinks I can laugh, but she doesn't realize yet that it is just reflexes, but I will add that to my tricks in about 3-4 weeks. I went to the Doctor today for my 4 week apointment, at least that is what my mom told me. I weigh 9 pounds and 11 ounces. I am now 21.6 inches long. I have been growin and eatin and sleepin a lot. I still prefer the nights to the bright daytime to be awake, but mom and dad are doing a great job "tryin" to get me on a schedule. HA HA HA!!! It is fun to think that I am 1/12 of a year old! I am looking forward to meeting you northern friends and family sometime soon. You have been waiting to meet mom and dad's kid for a long time, so a few more weeks shouldn't be that much harder. Keep being patient, legally we are still here, but the lawyers are trying to work out something for us. Dad found out for us that our state has always been the slowest to return the paperwork to allow us to come home. I am looking forward to being hugged by you all sometime, so until then, sing Happy Birthday to me! Love, Baby Mac
Thanks for the outfit, Ali and Aisy, Phil and Jill!
Also, don't I look like a blue Shrek?
We went out to a wonderful dinner in celebration of Mac's 1 month birthday!
Of course, Mac slept through the entire event, even the live entertainment.

Is that a giggle I see or is Baby Mac just pretending to be asleep for Dad's sake?

We finally realized we could post comments (duh)! We think Baby Mac is adorable, and we can't wait to hug and cuddle him. Bud says to put a ball in his hand every day, so it becomes second nature. Beth says forget that; just make sure you read to him every day. :-) We miss you!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Bud, Beth & Beyond
Oh, and in response to one of the above comments, we think Baby Mac is definitely faking sleep and giggling! :-)
