Happy 1 Month Drake!

Drake turned 1 MONTH on January 20th!
Wow, how time flies!
To celebrate, we got together with our good friends Adam & Jasmine and their beautiful baby girl Danielle. She was born 2 days before Drake so we saw them in the hospital. So fun to have babies together!

Drake and his future girlfriend Danielle. Isn't she a cutie!?

Drake is a great baby! He is very alert and has big, beautiful blue eyes! He has one 4 1/2-5 hour sleep period during the night and then the rest of the night and day he wants to eat about every 3 hours. So not much sleep here, but we're working on it. He loves constant movement and has a hard time sitting still for too long. He loves his swing and bouncer and LOVES to be held. I think someone is a little spoiled. He's getting pretty good at following objects and looking into our eyes. Today, was the first time he smiled at me! It was so exciting and even made me teary-eyed a little!
I can't believe the struggles we've been through the past month and the joys we've experienced. Drake brings so much happiness into our lives and has made us so close as a family.

He's adorable. Sure wish I could make a visit although I don't think you would appreciate 6 little people hovering over the newborn. I can't believe how he is growing! By the way, I LOVE your new haircut, it looks great on you. The picture of Hunter is so cute as well. I bet he loved this little guy!
