Matthew's 1 Month Birthday

Matthew turned a month old on April 10th.  Kate was more than happy to blow out a candle and eat a cupcake in his honor.  At Matthew's 1 month doctor's visit he weighed 11 pounds 7 ounces-a four and a half pound increase over his birth weight!  That's in the 80th percentile while at 21 inches he is in the 25th percentile for length-wonder which parent he is taking after?!?  He is a pretty solid boy.

Things we know about Matthew:
1. He likes to eat.
2. He pays close attention to his big sister.
3. He knows when Mommy has left the room-he doesn't really appreciate it.
4. He likes to sleep on Daddy's chest and not so much in his own crib.
5. He is no drama queen, but he is a grunter.  He is usually a good baby, but makes some funny noises.
6. He doens't like his swing too much yet, but is very content in his bouncy seat, on the floor, or his car seat.
7. Changing his diaper is much more challenging than it was with Kate-you have to be quick.
8. We love him and life is good!
