Owen is One Month Old!



It's hard to believe Owen is a month old now. To be honest, between the sleepless nights it's hard to think about much of anything anymore. Owen had his month checkup at the pediatrician this week and he's grown to 9 lbs 5 oz, gaining more than an ounce a day since his last visit at one week of age. His head is now 15 inches and he's grown an inch and is now 21 inches long. He's got quite the pair of lungs on him, usually choosing to exercise them during the evening hours. He's also got an uncanny ability of being WIDE awake after his nightly feeding at exactly 11pm. Frustrating for a mommy trying to get some much-needed rest!

Colin is dealing with his baby brother and his crying in stride. We've explained to him that this is how Owen talks and Colin proclaims almost daily how he used to talk when he was a baby, implying that he actually used words instead of crying. Somewhere we must have a video of him screaming, probably time to get that out.

We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We are thankful for our healthy sons, each other, our family and friends and our health among many other things!
