 Dominick,

This month has been such a fun one! You have grown so much and I just wish I could bottle you up and open when I need something to make me smile or in your crazy teenage years. You are such a special little guy and as much as I love that you are growing and changing EVERY single day, I wish time would slow down just a little bit. You are SO much fun right now. You coo and your smile and are just a little butter ball. I LOVE every thing about this stage. Even the frustrating moments where I don't know why you're crying your little heart out and can't get you to settle down; I really do love those moments too. I know they won't be forever and sometimes it makes me happy, but so often it just makes me a little sad. I look at you all the time and my heart feels like it is going to explode. I am so proud of you, sweet boy! You really do rock my world!

You are such a little lover and you just love to be kissed and loved on. You have started smiling when we talk to you and that is seriously just the BEST! You are such a sweet, sweet baby and multiple times a day you just melt my heart. When we kiss you, you open your mouth and just smile and smile.

With that said you are a strong willed little guy. You are stubborn and I say opinionated. You definitely let us know if you are unhappy because you just get mad. You've figured out a way to get attention by doing a little fake cry. When we show you some attention you will be happy again for some time, unless you are hungry.

Speaking of hungry, you eat a LOT. I've given you a few bottles to prepare you for when I go back to work. You don't seem to have any confusion. You took a 5 oz bottle and then a 3 oz bottle (which did NOT satisfy you at all). You are definitely growing and becoming quite a big guy. We've had some trouble with constipation this month. I've cut out most dairy and that seems to have done the trick. 

You absolutely LOVE bath times. You can be so fussy, but as soon as you get in the bath it's like all your "worries" just disappear and you become so relaxed. You love them.

You are such a good baby and we just love you. We thank God every single day that He picked us to be your parents. You are such a special little boy and I can't wait to see what's in store for you. I pray that I am able to be the mom that you need to mold you into a strong, smart, successful, respectful, God loving man. We are so excited to see what this next month has in store for our little family of 3.
 Love you to the moon and back,
Momma
