Fourth week :)

I cannot believe how quickly the time is flying by and my little man is already a month old! Joe's mom and I took Christian to the doctor for his one month well check on August 6th - my big guy is already 9 lbs 9 oz and 22.5 inches! He's growing so fast :( He doesn't see the doctor now until two months and he will get shots at that appointment :( Here are a couple of my favorite pics from this week - the first one is my favorite pic of him so far :)

Second week :)

Not too much exciting happened the second week at home - we were lucky to have Joe home with us so we just spent some time together as a family, had a few visitors and went to the doctor for another weight check. Our little man was back up to his birth weight plus an ounce and the doctor was very happy with his growth. We also had a few photo shoots and worked on planning Christian's baptism and party :) Here are a few of our favorite pics from the week . . .

First appointment with the doctor

Friday the 16th was Christian's first appointment with his pediatrician. We were very anxious to see how much he weighed as he wasn't a very good eater the first few days and lost nearly a pound over the four days we were in the hospital. We were happy to hear that he was back up to 7 lbs 12 oz - well on his way back to his birth weight. The doctor talked to us a little about his sleep habits and how to clear his nose and told us to bring him back in one week for another weight check. She declared him "perfect" :) Here's a pic with Daddy and Christian waiting for the nurse to take his measurements:
