1-Month Milestones & Pictures

CJ turned 1-month old on Sunday and had his 1-month well baby visit with the pediatrician yesterday. He now weighs 8 lbs 6 oz and is 22" long, compared to 7 lbs 3oz and 19" when he was born. The pediatrician was very happy that he's growing and gaining weight!

He still sleeps a lot and eats every 2-3 hours during the day. He likes to be up unfortunately during late evening hours (~9-1am) and then sleeps for 2-4 hour stretches--last night was his first 4 hour stretch from midnight to 4am!

He loves grunting and making all sorts of squeaking, whimpering, and giggling noises- especially in his sleep, and making lots of funny faces from extreme happy to surprise to the saddest face you've ever seen all in just seconds.

Here are a few of CJ's other first month milestones and 1-month photos:

Discoveries - thumbs and fingers (especially sucking on them), mom's necklace-which he loves to grab, and the mobile above his swing

Accomplishments - pushing up off mom and dad's chests and holding his head up, rolling onto his side, and smiling
