We Have a One Month Old!

How crazy is that?! I can't believe Will is a month old. Today was our first outing, just the two of us, and I think we did very well. We saw Dr. Barfield this morning, and he was very pleased with Will. He is up to 8 lbs 10 oz and is one inch taller. This is not nearly what I thought he would weigh based on how much he eats, but Dr. Barfield thought it was a good number. Will was quiet and awake for Dr. Barfield, and the nurse today was also a lactation consultant, so we got a good report on his nursing too.

Will got all kinds of compliments from the nurses and other moms. What I heard most was how much he looks like a tiny grown up instead of a baby. I think it is because he looks so much like Gus.

In the next few weeks, we should expect for Will to start sleeping through his 3 am feeding...can't wait for that! We should also expect a lot of fun awake and smiling time.

The three of us had an awesome weekend. Gus and Will hung out together on Saturday while I had girls lunch...and got a terrible sunburn sitting outside for an hour long lunch. Sunday, Gus had a nice bike ride, and the three of us spent the rest of the day playing and snuggling.

I'll take a one month birthday picture when Will wakes up from his nap, but these pictures are from this weekend.
