1 Month

 Time sure has flown by! B is already one month old! Things are going well at home. B has gotten to meet lots of family and friends. Joe and I are enjoying every second with our little guy. Our first month together we only had a couple of small bumps in the road (diaper rash and getting nursing figured out).

Monday we went to B's one month pediatrician appointment and boy has he grown!! He is 22 inches long, almost 11 pounds and is in the 85th percentile in his overall size. Big boy!! He is sleeping pretty well at night. I usually put him down around 10:30pm, he wakes up around 2:30am, then again at 5:30 or 6am (when Joe is usually waking up for work). Joe and I are feeling pretty well rested. We are hoping that continues.

We have some travel and visitors in the month of August. Joe has a conference to attend in Gainesville, Fl so we get to go stay in Gainesville from August 11th till the 18th. We are incredibly excited about this trip because we have missed our dear friends down in Florida and they all get to meet B for the first time! After we get back from Gainesville we have the pleasure of having Cindy (Joe's mom) visit us for a week. Can't wait for her to meet B! Then, at the end of the month we get on a plane to go to Nevada to see Art and Barb. Our Southern California family will all come to Art and Barbs to visit with us and meet the newest addition to the family. B is just going to be a social butterfly in August! We are looking forward to the quality time spent with our family and closest friends.
