Charlie's 1-month check-up

Charlie had his 1-month well visit today and he's doing very well. He now weighs 9 lbs, 15.5 oz (55th percentile), is 21.75 inches long (56th percentile), and his head is in the 72nd percentile. The poor guy had to have some blood taken because his bilirubin level has gone up a bit -- he was very brave and even fell asleep halfway through (of course he did -- he can't sleep in his bassinet, but can sleep through a nurse drawing vial after vial of blood).

That's amazing that he slept through having blood drawn!

Of course, he sleeps during office visits, he's gotta save up for the night time games!

I was just going through old emails and found reports of Ellie's weight gains. He's definitely following in his big sister's footsteps!

Sounds like he is doing great, including doing his job of making sure Mommy is sufficiently sleep deprived! Hopefully the blood test show there is nothing to worry about.
