This is a few days late, but here's what Ben is up to at 1 month old!
Wt: 10 lb 13 oz (75th percentile)
Length: 22 inches (75th percentile)
He is huge! Compared to our petite little girls, we have one gigantic boy baby! Just to compare, Reagan was only a few ounces heavier than Ben when she was 4 months old!
He has outgrown just about all of his newborn clothes, so sadly I am putting those away to make way for the bigger stuff. He is growing so fast! He is nursing well and eating every 2-3 hours during the day. He has been going to bed at night between 8 and 9 p.m., waking up around 12 and 4 a.m. to eat and then up for the day around 6 a.m. I am tired! Hopefully soon he will start sleeping longer stretches at night!
We haven't really gotten to see too much personality from little Ben yet. No smiles yet, but he loves to snuggle and usually prefers Mommy to comfort him. The last few weeks on our own without the help of Sam's parents have been challenging, but are getting easier every day! The girls have been helpful and love having a little brother around! Here's the first of his monthly pictures with his elephant that Grandma Sampson knitted for him!
