Blythe's First Month

3/31/2010

So I'm a week late in posting, but better late than never right! I got the picture taken at the right point at least.

Last Wednesday Blythe turned one month old. The time is already flying by! She had lots of FIRSTS. Here's a little update on what's she's been up to this month:

  • She attended her first staff meeting. She was loved on by all. I think she enjoyed herself.
  • She also attended her first small group. Again she was loved on and cuddled.
  • Blythe attended her first church service and slept right through it.
  • She also made her first youth group appearance. The kids are SO incredibly excited about Blythe and have welcomed her with open arms.
  • Blythe has also developed a great relationship with her doctor. Her first week of life we visited for her one week check up. Her second week of life we visited for a clogged tear duct and her third week for an eye infection for the other eye. Last week we had her one month check up.
  • At her month check up we found out that she has grown 3/4 of an inch so she is now 22 1/4 inches and weighs 9 lbs 13 oz. She is in the 98th percentile for height!
  • She is a great eater! As her weight gain shows. :)
  • She is wearing size 1 diapers already and can wear lots of her 3 month clothes.
  • Blythe is also doing a great job sleeping. She only gets up once a night and sleeps in 3 to 4 hour chunks. Getting sleep makes all the difference!
Our sweet friend Julie gave us these onesies. There are 12, one for every month so we can document her growth in her first year. So here is month 1. She will always be sitting by her lamb so we can see how much she has grown from month to month.
