1 Month Doctor Visit

The little guy has been pretty active the last few days so just a quick update:

Weight: 9.6 pounds!!! The doctor was very happy with his weight gain. We continue to feed him on demand and he enjoys eating very much.

Length: 22 inches

I know there is something that has to do with what percentile Nicholas is in, but I don't really care about things like that. As long as he is growing and healthy, that's good enough for me. He's a happy, healthy, boy, and Nick and I couldn't be more thrilled.

The downside of the visit - Nicholas got his first shot, his second one for Hepatitis B (I wasn't there for the first one as he had it in the hospital). It was DEVASTATING. I'm not exaggerating. He screamed so loud and so painfully. I can honestly say it was the first time I REALLY felt like a mom. I wish I could have taken the shot for him. He is fine now, but I am still having trouble getting over it.

A giraffe rattle from Kath Antista. It looks as though he's holding it, but honestly it was a pause in his screaming that I gave it to him to try to calm him down. :)

Activity Mat from my Dad's friends - he's really starting to enjoy looking at the colors.

He was up since 3 am...so at 5:30 am he needed a nap ;)

He's already forgotten about the shot, everything else in life is good for him ;) Of course he needed a nap; most people cant be up for 18 hours straight :P
