1 Month Check-up

It's been a month since our precious baby boy was born! Where has the time gone? We're finally adjusting to getting up several times during the night, eating meals in shifts, and all the other stuff that comes with a newborn. We love every minute of it! Carter is developing such a funny personality- he smiles all morning long, he always wants to be where everyone else is and see what is going on, and he talks ALL the time (whether he is awake or asleep!). We went to KPA for our 1 month check-up with Dr. Roberts on Thursday, March 19th. He is still a little jaundiced so they wanted to take blood to check his levels. It took 3 sticks to get the amount of blood they needed for the tests. Needless to say, he HATED that! They were very shocked that he had such a temper already!

They took off an ounce for his diaper so he actually weighs 11 pounds, 8.5 ounces (84%).

He measures 22.6 inches long (78%) and his head is 37.2 cm (30%). He is growing like a weed!

He was not happy being checked out and he let us all know it!
