the littlest firecracker

Although you wouldn't know it from his pictures, Davis is staying awake with us more and more each day. He usually likes to hang out with us for about an hour both in the morning and at 10 o'clock at night when we are winding down. (At least it's not in the middle of the night!) During this time his favorite activities are waving his arms, kicking the legs and listening to music. Simple pleasures.

We should also report that Davis received a clean bill of health for his 1 month check up at the doctor's office this week. I am proud to tell that he has jumped from being in the 25th percentile in weight at his first visit to reaching the 70th percentile weighing in at 10 lbs 6 oz. What a kid. He is also now 22 inches long (50th percentile).

Our Fourth of July was pretty uneventful, but very relaxing. This weekend we finally got the nursery, well, looking like a nursery. And the way I like to look at it is that Davis wasn't due until this week anyway, so we are still on time. Right? (Right.) We have had so many visitors in the past few weeks I know I have a lot of news to catch up on. But because it's late already, I will have to save those stories for another time. So sorry to disappoint you this time, but it gives you something to look for in the future.

I think Davis expresses it best in the picture below. Night, night.
