One Month Old!!

Elliot as "Mr. Cool".
He really enjoys his bath time. He is so cute...he gets into this total calm and relaxed zone in the bath.

Wrapped in his warm, turtle, hooded towel.

Elliot is officially one month old today!! It was so nice today, as this 1 month old, also gave us some real smiles and little babbles. It was as if he knew we were celebrating something special. It is amazing how much he has changed in a short month. The first 2 weeks or so, he slept most of the day, except for a few short hours. By week 3 and 4, he was sleeping much less and when he was awake, he'd sit and watch us with such intensity and wisdom. Although he has a few short fussy times every day, for the most part he is a mellow and calm baby, and now, after today's smiles, he also seems to be a happy baby!

We received a few great smiles today from Elliot.

...and also some really cute babbling/talking sounds.

As you can see, his hair is getting more reddish brown vs the dark brown it was at birth. His eyes...we think are turning more blue, although they are still a dark, dark blue and sometimes look even brownish. But, overall, we "think" his eyes are going to be blue. Look at the chunkiness of his arms and legs, not to mention his cute, chubby face.
Some more little smiles.
