One Month Old and Other Happenings

Grant had his one month check up this week. Here are his stats:

Weight: 10lb 15.5 oz (75%)

Height: 22.5" (78%)
Head Circumference: 15.6" (76%)

He is healthy and developing well. He is doing a good job of "tracking" which is following objects with his eyes. He even turns his head back and forth while tracking which is really good for a five week old (we're so proud). He has a pretty easy temperment, only fussing when he is hungry, needs a diaper change or needs a cuddle. He has even let us get a 4 hour block of sleep a few times. In the last week or so Dad has gotten the first real smiles out of him!

I made sure to film Grant's "newborn cry" before it disappears.

Cuddle time with DaddyJust a photo of an outfit I like. He looks like a little Seth.

Kayla has been an excellent big sister. Here is a video of the first time she held Grant in the hospital:

(Grant wasn't actually "nakey." He was wearing a diaper. But just a diaper is "nakey" to Kayla.)

She sings to him...


..and reads to him.


When she wakes up in the morning she wants to cuddle with him.

Here is Kayla just being herself.

And finally, Kayla sings the ABCs with some fabulous dance moves:
