Declan: one month

Declan will be one month on Monday, and to celebrate we went to the doctor's office today for his first well baby appointment. There were streamers and everything! (not really)

You can check all the percentiles here, but the 411 is that he's generally smaller than Annika....especially in head size. She was always in the 90th percentile for head circumference, but he's between 50-60%. Chris says he has a pinhead. I say he can wear hats made for his age!

Other stuff he can do right now: hold up his head, kinda smile (mostly when gassy, but sometimes when Chris kisses his chin), cry, eat, not sleep that much. (I am tired).

The stats:

Length: 21.75 inches
Weight: 11 pounds
Head circumference: 15 inches

He looks so serious! Such a little man! :) And I can't believe it's been a month already, good heavens.

He's adorable, Jen! And I understand the head size thing- Travis had a big head too:-). You may remember that...anyhow- I can appreciate the joy of wearing hats for his appropriate age!

Hope you get some sleep soon!
