One Month!

It seems impossible that this little dude is one month ... except that it seems like we've had him forever so this is officially the dumbest sentence ever.

Daniel is the most amazing, wonderful creature and I can't believe I'm his mother. All of the sappy cliches spring to mind and I'm too sleep deprived to come up with anything more profound than this: I am in love and so very blessed.

At one month, Mr Baby is 9 pounds and 1 oz. This puts him in the 34th percentile for weight which is a nice improvement over the 21st percentile where he was at birth. He's also now 21inches long. He can hold his head up for over 5 seconds during tummy time which is way ahead of his age. We need to work on moving objects from right to left in front of his eyes and not letting him turn his head to follow.

Sleep is on track for age: on a good night we get a 3 to 4 hour block beginning anywhere from 9 to 11. After that we're lucky to get 2 hrs at a time.

We are exclusively breast feeding ... and are about to start pumping so I have a stash when I go back to work. He loves to eat and has been nicknamed 'The Boobie Monster' ... lol.

I'm excited to take his "official" one month pic later today (he's snoozing right now and there's no chance I'm going to wake him up!)

Pics!
