One month appointment

Today we had Andrew's one month well visit. He'll be 6 weeks old tomorrow so the appointment was a little late but I guess he technically is still one month+ old. Anyway, the last visit was around 3 weeks and he weighed 9 pounds 7 ounces. Today he weighed 10 pounds, 13 ounces and was 23.25 inches long (up from 21 inches at birth). That puts him in the 90th percentile for height and 75th percentile for weight. He's going to be a big boy! He got his second round of HepB shot and did pretty well. Overall he's a healthy guy!

We had a milestone on Sunday, while changing his diaper and kissing his face I got my first smile! It was so cute, I wish I had a picture to show everyone! Andrew is also starting to make little cooing noises and really focus on things in his line of sight. When he's awake and happy he likes to kick his legs, swing his arms and try to talk to us with his sweet little baby voice. He's still nursing every 1.5-2 hours during the day. He'll go as long as 3-4 hours between feedings at night (though usually I'm not that lucky), sometimes goes right back to sleep until the next feeding, others he's wide awake - mommy isn't sleeping too much! When he is sleeping, he co-sleeps with mommy and daddy in a Co-sleeper in between them and listens to white noise or heartbeat sounds. He seems to wake up with the sunrise and only naps well while being held. He's a good traveler, as long as he's not hungry, he'll usually fall asleep in the car and while we shop.

Here's some snapshots from today:
