one month of milo!

today, milo is one month old!  it's hard to believe that one month ago, this little man was not in our lives - he's already got such a personality and is a full on contributing member of our family.  penny has spent so much time waiting for him to arrive that all she ever wants to do is hug him, kiss him and snuggle with him.  it's pretty delightful and gratifying, and i'm totally going to remind her of it in 12 years or so.
facts about milo:

• he HATES being wet, and hates peeing.  he will sit in a poopy diaper for hours, but the moment he pees, it's the worst thing that has ever happened to him.
• when he is awake, he is super alert.  he can track with the best of them, grabs for things, and has almost found his toes a number of times.
• the past couple of nights he has howled non-stop from about 9pm to 11pm.  tonight, i think i hacked him.
• he way prefers sleeping on his tummy.
• he has incredible head and neck control, and has been able to lift and turn his head pretty much since day one.  this makes tummy time a pretty pleasant experience.
• penny thinks he's the best thing since sliced bread.
• he photographs brilliantly.  behold:
