Baby Dolton is one month old today! He is growing so much - as of last Wednesday he was up to 7 pounds, 3.5 ounces, and was 20.5 inches long. He actually has outgrown one outfit! This is a big deal, since none of his clothes fit when he was first born. We had to go and get preemie-size clothes because he was swimming in the newborn-size!

Wednesday also saw another milestone... He rolled over for the first time! He was on his tummy on the couch, and sure enough, over he went. It scared the crap out of me, since I'm so used to him staying where I put him! He's also started reaching for things, and can occasionally catch the bunny that hangs over his bouncy seat. Dolton doesn't really like to be on his tummy, but can lift his head to a 45 degree angle when his is. He's also getting better at holding his head up when being held vertically, but still favors the cradle-hold.

My Grandma, Birdie, sent Baby Dolton this adorable outfit in the mail. It was his first piece of clothing (that wasn't pajamas) that actually fit! It took a few tries, but I finally got a couple good pictures of him in it. He was not happy about the photo-shoot!
May 3rd and 4th was the Annual OOA Convention, one of my all time favorite things to do. Baby Dolton sure had lots of fun! Everyone there just adored him - as you can see from all the pictures! Everyone wanted to hold him, and he received lots of new "toys" - random pharmaceutical company give-aways. He did really well, seeing as how this was his first all-day outing. It was also my first time breast-feeding in public. (Thank the Lord for large blankets!)

Notice his badge - it's almost as big as he is!.
My child's hair is a constant source of amazement to me. Everyone comments on how much he has, and they want to know what I used to style it with. The answer is nothing! No matter how much I brush his hair, it just gets bigger and bigger. I told Mom about it, and she had to try for herself...
"Grammie, leave my hair alone!" .
Here are a few pictures of Baby Dolton's "milk-drunk" look - after he eats, he's so tired he can barely stay awake! Notice the milk running down his neck...
"Auntie" Adreanne came to visit Baby Dolton last Sunday... They had a fine time together!
Adreanne barely put him down the whole time she was here!
Baby boy was hungry... He didn't know those boobs don't have milk!
Dolton sure likes his Auntie Adreanne!
