One Month Check-in

Yesterday, I took Liam for his one-month doctor's appointment. As we expected, he is doing splendidly.

Liam currently is:
9 pounds 7 ounces (without a poopy diaper)
20.75 inches
17 cm head circumference

He can already lift head at a 90 degree angle, make eye contact and follow the sound of either Mommy or Daddy's voice.

His likes:
Laying on Mommy and Daddy
Kisses on the tummy
Napping
Watching the Cubs -- especially when they win!
Staring at his crib mobile

His dislikes:
Laying on his back
Getting strapped into his car seat
Having clothes go over his head
Gas! And I don't me the kind at the pump.

I estimate that he has gone through 450 diapers and 675 wipes in his first month of life. Believe me, the fact that boys don't potty train until they are 2.5 to 3 years old is weighing heavily on me right now.

Noah never liked laying on his back and still wont do it. He hated getting into the car seat and clothes over his head. He has outgrown that a bit, but not much.

At least now he likes bath time and splashing in the tub.

Aww... he's getting so big!

Emily didn't like being on her back until she could see stuff - now that she can see and focus on her mobile, she loves being on her back!
