It has taken us weeks to figure out who (what) Knox looks like and finally... jackpot.

We made it one month! It is surreal at how quickly time has passed and yet at the same time, we can't imagine life without a tiny, but growing boy hanging out around the house every day. There are so many things that we love about Knox and our newfound parenthood, and below is a small snapshot about some of them...

The budding friendship between a boy and his dog. They get along great in that she usually kisses him once (before I can get to her) and then tries to take his socks off. Knox usually responds by scrunching his face up and then resuming life as normal.
Knox's new girlfriend. Quite a beauty, eh? We're not sure how long he'll keep her around due to the fact he has a rather limited attention span.

Our son's ability to projectile shoot bodily fluid MUCH further than we ever anticipated. Just a few days ago, he hit the "X" in the wall hanging above his changing table. We weren't even mad - just impressed.

Knox's love of sleep. His deep love of shut eye has seriously benefitted Jay's BAR study.

His freakishly strong legs. Honestly, sometimes I am surprised when I come back into a room and he is still lying in the same place I left him because if he could just maintain balance, he could definitely jump out of his crib and waddle his way to freedom.

Exciting events of week 3...

Welcome everyone! We thought we'd try our hand at this world of blogging so that you can keep up to date with the oh-so-very-exciting world of Knox! (especially those of you who don't live in close proximity) We'll try to update it as much as we can, but if you notice a slow period, just assume that Knox had no cool tricks to show everyone that week :).

So now for the good stuff... He has already been "out" for nearly four weeks now! This coming Saturday will be his1 month birthday and of course Jay & I are planning a huge bash. (meaning, we'll take a moment to break from Jay's studying to recognize that we've kept him alive for a solid month.)
In anticipating the 1-month mark, Knox has been lobbying hard for us to let him out of that "cage" he sleeps in and to trade up to a proper bed. Despite his best efforts, we're not on board with his request since he still lacks the ability to roll over. Or heck, even sleep on his stomach.

Over the past week, since we sent Peedles home, we have become more adept at getting out and about on our own. I feel that this is an accomplishment and an enjoyable experience. I'll let Knox's picture speak for itself - he clearly disagrees with me and feels that this is a form of child abuse.

Ironically, he seems to enjoy Jay precariously hoisting him up on his shoulders and parading him around the house. And for Knox's newest discovery - the television. At a mere three weeks old, we can already see the potential for a crack-like addiction forming. Therefore, we are now making sure that he is facing away from the TV when we're hanging out.
