Kaelem had a busy week. On Wednesday he, mom, grandma, and aunt Sharon went to visit Great aunt Sally and Don in Eugene. We had a chance to have lunch at the Hakkos and visit with Sheryl, David, Jen, and Sam. It was exciting for everyone to meet him, and as always great to see everyone.

On Saturday, Kaelem's cousins, Erin and Kaysi came to visit. Of course, he enjoyed watching a great husky game too! Go Dawgs may be some of his first words...

On Monday, we tried out the jogger stroller that Krista gave us. It worked perfectly, so we went on our first walk. Hopefully it will make its way out of the garage more often. That is once Mom starts getting more sleep. Kaelem has really been cranky due to colic. It will hopefully pass. Please keep your fingers crossed for all of us!!!

Kaelem celebrates one month!

He sure has a lot of curls after his bath
Kaelem is so relaxed in his play gym... it puts him right to sleep.

Kaelem went to the doctor on Thursday and has really grown. He weighed in at 9lbs 2oz. This only puts him in the 25th percentile for his age. He seems to be eating a ton. On Friday he was one month old, and we had to put away a couple outfits he has grown out of. Most of the newborn sizes with feet and getting way too short. Luckily he is still longer than he is wide.

Can't believe it's already been a month!!!

I can't believe that today Kaelem is one month old. It seems like just yesterday we brought him home. I can really tell that he is starting to grow. He is drinking a lot more and all of his outfits with feet are becoming too short. He is starting to be able to focus a little better and definitely knows certain voices.

We got his passport mailed in this week. Hopefully it will arrive soon so we can make a trip to Tobago to see dad. Next month he will get some of his immunizations and then we will go. I can't wait to take him to the doctor to see how much he has grown.
