(I started this on Friday....) Peter is a month old today. I'll be honest, he hasn't settled into much of routine and some days he's awake and alert all day and some days he's a sleeper. Some days he's super fussy and pretty much needs to be held all the time (usually on a day I have things to do and he won't permit...
