Dear Fischer,

I've heard it said that holding a baby is the best therapy. You have proved that statement to me this month. Over the past month, through a tragic situation, loving you, holding you, nursing you, has brought me great comfort. I know the Lord is faithful to provide all things and I also know that he does that in different ways through different things and people. Through your sweet smiles, snuggles, and giggles, He has provided joy and truly a peace that passes all understanding.

This month, my prayer for you is that the Lord would use your sweet spirit to comfort many many people in your life. That you would one day know that your true source of comfort is your Creator and that that source will never dry up. I pray that the Lord would specifically design relationships and people to give you joy and comfort in the times in your life that you would need it. I am so thankful for your sweet, tender personality that the Lord has uniquely created for YOU, Fischer Knox Wiley.

-You weigh a lot and are very long (we don't go to the doc again until 4 months)
-You wear size 2 or 3 diapers and 3-6 month/6 month clothes
-You are on a good 3-4 hour schedule during the day, 5 feedings a day plus a moonlight before I go to bed.
-You sleep so well. 4 awesome naps and 9+ hours at night.
-You go down awake, sometimes you fuss for 5-10 minutes, and wake up happy most of the time.
-You are coooing and talking and cooing and talking
-You chew on your hands
-You still love your crib mobile, tolerate your swing, and have come to LOVE your bouncy seat
-You watch your siblings and laugh at them often
-You flirt with your mommy every chance you get and love to smile and talk to your daddy

We are thankful for you, Fischer Knox!

Love,
Mommy
