It’s pretty amazing when you really think about all of the “firsts” a baby experiences during infancy. Everything is brand new. How exciting (if maybe only for the parents)! Too bad the kiddos won’t remember any of it. I got the BEST first the parent of a one month-old can get this morning. After Carter ate his breakfast, he and I were just playing and talking. When I smiled at him, he smiled back at me. A REAL smile. Not one that is the result of gas. It made my day! Since it was so quick, I don’t have a picture, but here are some of Carter’s other “firsts”:
First car ride:
First sponge bath:
First trip to the doctor:
Meeting my great-grandaddy Vick:
First nap in my big-boy bed:
First trip to a restaurant:
First Thanksgiving:
First big-boy bath:
Rest assured, there will be many more “firsts”!
