Oh my goodness, words cannot express how much we love Slade! Fastest month of our lives. The days have been a blur! Filled with love, tears, less sleep, more smiles, and such a full heart. He's a little bit about our growing boy!
- When he was born he was 6.6 lbs, 17.75 inches
- NOW 8 pounds, 21 inches (give or take...forgot stats haha)
- Slade came out with a head full of hair….looked really black
but it’s starting to get lighter
- Makes the world's saddest face with his frown
- He started out hating his diaper changes...only time he would scream bloody murder. Now he likes them only after he's full and happy.
- It’s looking like he might keep his blue eyes! Just like Dad
- He liked his swing….like twice haha he’ll be fine, then
we’ll put him in it and he’ll scream to get out…he just wants to be held by his
parents
- He does like his bouncer a bit more but the vibration that
comes with it is usually not enough, I tap my foot on it while we eat dinner
and he loves it, he then falls asleep there
- He loves his carseat! Sometimes when its time to go and hes
fussy, we put him in there and THEN he calms down.
- With that, he loves car rides, he falls asleep or is happily
awake
- Also in his carseat, he loves going on walks in his stroller
- Loves to fall asleep on mom and dad's arms
- He survives sacrament meeting at church because he’s sooo
asleep.
- He usually survives primary sharing time too, even with all
the rowdy and loud singing kids!
- He hates pacifiers, we found one MAM kind and he liked it
for like two days
- He can’t find his thumb so he sucks on his whole fist
- He kinda hates nursing sometimes, he has his good days and bad days! #itsbeentough
- He sometimes sucks on his arm right after eating….but he’s
not hungry anymore
- People love to make his hair a faux hawk
- Likes his picture taken! Really! I think he likes the shutter sound haha
- Loves the ceiling fan above our bed
- He doesn't really pay attention to Lexy our cat...she doesn't pay attention to him either haha
- He LOVES cuddling with dad in bed or on the couch
- NB and 0-3 month clothes is what he wears
- Eats like 12 times a day! Hungry man
- When he eats too much he gets the hiccups and he doesn't mind
- Sleeps pretty good : 9pm - 1am then 2pm-6am ....can't complain!
- LOVES to be swaddled, can't sleep without his SwaddleMe
- He started sleeping in his crib by like 3 weeks... he started in his bassinet but after midnight feeding, straight to the crib and now just in his crib

| This kid does have a nice set of lungs sometimes :) |

| When he's sleeping that's the most peaceful face ever! |
 |
| This is the world's saddest face :) We still think he looks adorable though |
