Celebrated Richie’s 1st month milestone - Fifth Week

Richie became 1 month old this week. It was a month of mixed emotions for him and me.
We celebrated his 1st month b’day with great pomp. After all he had a cozy time in my womb for 9 months and to adjust to the new life in this BIG new world certainly called for a celebration.

We decorated the house and got a delicious cream cake. You won’ t believe when Richie tasted the cake he could not stop asking for more. ;) He was excited that he was tasting something different than the usual mama’s milk. We clicked a lot of snaps for our collection.

This week Richie had his 1 month checkup. The doctor said that he was gaining weight well and his height and head circumference was average. His neck also was getting stronger and everything was just perfectly fine. Good to hear that!! :)

Milestone: This week Richie held his head high for sometime when I put him on his stomach. Wow!! :) He is also trying some sign language, but we are yet to understand what it means. ;) He shows a great deal of curiosity about his environment by changing his facial expressions to different sounds.
