Precious Moments

So since my last blog entry I have found out that Chance does have colic...yay! He has been getting fussy a lot in the evening hours, but I can honestly say I don't think it is that bad. Don't get me wrong, there has been moments were I wished I was hard of hearing, but moments like these are were you have to find the good in the bad. The other night when he started crying like crazy I picked him up and held him tight against me, started swaying him back and forth and started humming Phantom of the Opera (of all songs lol) and he slowly started to calm down. When you can look down at your child and know that just being held and loved is what is calming to them, those colic moments aren't all that bad.

A couple days after my last blog entry I knew I wanted to name this one Precious Moments because of a milestone (in my eyes) that I had with Chance one morning. It was the first time that I was playing with him that he smiled when I tickled his face, and for y'alls benefit I was able to capture the moment with a picture. Isn't he just so darn cute!! Another thing is that Chance has been talking up a storm recently..okay well really not talking but he babbles and coo's a lot, especially in the morning after I feed him and put him in his crib for the last time before we get up for the day. That's another thing that I am going to start focusing on a little more is slowing start moving him to his crib. He has been sleeping in his pack n' play next to my bed since we got home. I don't think that I am completely ready to start moving him to his crib but I do need to start putting him in it more while he naps to start getting him use to it. He seems to like it though so I hope we won't have a hard time with that transition.
Chance's had his one month check up and of course he passed with flying colors. The nurse did mess up his PKU test the first time around and so we had to redo that test, it was so easy the first time, Chance did amazing and didn't cry at all but the second time....not so much. Although, I wouldn't be to happy either people poking my heel and squeezing blood out of it.
Oh and before I forget, we received his newborn photos in the mail. Here are a few of my favorites.

Enjoy!
