one month (a little late)

How can my sweet Simon be one month? I mean, the kid already weighs 12 pounds! I'm actually quite sad this month went by so fast. I feel like I didn't get to enjoy my sweet newborn nearly as much as I should have. He may be our last newborn, and I didn't have a chance to take advantage of holding and cuddling him. So, I'm going to do better. I'm going to laugh at my dishes and ignore the piles of laundry, and I'm going to hold and play with my little man! (so if you come by, don't judge, I'm just loving on my little one)

He had an adventurous first month!
~ He moved to a new house at the age of 2 weeks.
~ He stayed home with Grandma without me for a few hours while I attended a fundraiser with the husband.
~ He had his first Thanksgiving (which he slept almost the entire time in Grams' arms)
~ He's been squeezed and loved on constantly from his older siblings.
~ He went on his first Christmas tree hunt at a tree farm.
~ He started smiling around three and a half weeks old, and he has such an adorable smile.
~ He sleeps so good for the most part. Most the time I feed him around 10, and he doesn't get up until between 3am and 4am. Then he gets up again around 7am. That is not too difficult at all!

Here are some of my favorite shots of the month:
