Owen: Month, One

I blinked and the first month flew by. That is a total lie. I blinked about ten times (total) and the month flew by because, no sleep. 

Biggest Milestone: Attending Ginger's wedding when you were two weeks old. 

Hardest Challenge: (for me) The inability to breastfeed exclusively due to low milk supply.

Most Memorable: Breastfeeding. You have an awesome latch and are most comfortable at the breast. 

Also, baby snuggles -- forever.

Longest Stretch of Sleep: hahahaha! Not applicable.
