One Month Old!! Now who does he look like??

One month ago today I was in labor and delivery breathing through contractions until I wised up and got the epidural!! One month ago I had no idea how my life would change. Nights with little sleep, but many chances to hold and cuddle a cute baby late into the night and early into the morning. Long skinny fingers that grip tightly around a plump finger. Eyes that pierce through to the soul, captivating even the biggest and strongest of men. Continuous pinches to realize I'm not dreaming. He is real, he is our little boy! I am a mom! All the songs I wanted to sing to him when rocking him at night, not a lyric I can remember. He has changed so much since we first brought him home. The first picture is then and the second is now. Look at those chubby cheeks!! He's just now fitting into some of his 0-3 month outfits. He's gone from 6 lbs 5ozs to weighing 7 lbs 15ozs on Thanksgiving day.








I found baby pictures of both Dwayne and I and thought I'd ask who you think he looks most like. **Oh and Dawn does this outfit Dwayne is wearing look similar to the one you posted on your blog a while back or what??** There are little things about each of us that can be seen in one little blessing. I need to get one of him smiling because it melts the heart!!

I thought he looked like you from the first pictures. But now I think you and Dwayne look alike kinda as babies! So he looks like both of you! And yes, that outfit does look like the one I posted awhile back. You guys must be having so much fun as parents. You're sweet!

Oh My! He looks so much like you! As for Dwayne's little outfit, I have a portrait of Frank in almost the identical clothes! The only real difference I could see right off was that Frank's hat was polka dots!

I don't know who he looks like, but he's adorable!
