1 Month Old

Chesney you are one month old today! You seem to be growing very fast, but have brought so much love and joy in your one month with us.Here is what you are up to at 1 month:
  • Weight: 6lbs 9.6oz (1.77 percentile) on April 23, her 1 month birthday, 7lbs 10 oz (8.81 percentile) on April 26 (I'm guessing the April 23 weight was a little off because she could not possibly gain 1 lb over the weekend)
  • Length: 21 3/4 inches (70.96 percentile)
  • Clothes: You are wearing newborn clothes, and your feet are just starting to reaching the bottom of the newborn sleepers.
  • Shoes: Your newborn shoes don't fit yet. (It's hard to teach you how to accessorize when you can't wear shoes!)
  • Diapers: Newborn size
  • Food: Just milk
  • Development: You recognize my voice and daddy's too. You just started opening your mouth like you want to have a conversation when I talk to you. No smiles yet but you are getting close. You have your eyes open for longer periods of time every day which means more time to talk and play with you.
  • Words: None
  • Sleep: You sleep for 3-5 hour stretches. You wake up about twice each night. We moved you from the pack-n-play in our room to your crib in your nursery at 3 1/2 weeks. I cried the first few nights because I missed having you by my side all the time!
  • What I love about you: EVERYTHING! I love to watch you sleep in my arms. I love how you smile when you are just about to fall asleep. I don't know what you are dreaming of , but it must be good. I love it when you sleep on my chest.






Chesney you have filled our lives with so much love and joy, and we are so excited to watch you grow! We love you so much peanut!
