One Month

That's right, we survived the 1st month! And what a month it was....sickness, visitors, traveling, birthdays, it seemed like the madness would never end. But it did. And now we sleep, not really, Miles is only a month so sleep will still have to wait a bit :)

Miles had his one month check up on Monday and everything looked great. He grew a couple of inches, gained nearly 3 lbs, and his noggin expanded nicely :) This doctors office doesn't give me a nice print out of the growth charts like our doctor in Michigan did, but they did show me on the computer that Miles is out of the below 5% mark and into the good percentiles for all growth.

He's been eating like a champ so I would imagine he'll keep growing good. And even though he's not sleeping all night (not that I expect him to be at this point) he has started to do longer stretches. The past few nights he's gone 5-6 hours at the start and 3-4 hours in the middle. However, he is still having some trouble at times and needs some help getting comfortable and back to sleep, but I think we're starting to figure what is bugging him and what needs to be done to get him comfortable quickly. And hopefully he's on the same track as the others to be doing a 7-8 hour stretch around 8 weeks.

Jake, Brenden, and Rylan are still loving him lots. Well, the boys are, Rylan has more of a love/hate relationship with him - not surprising from a 2 and a half year old :)
