Wyatt is 1 month old!

What an exciting month for our little Wy-guy!  Being born right before the "busiest time of the year" definitely has it's perks... and its downfalls... like Mommy not having the time to take his "one-month" pictures until this morning (only 3 days late!) Ooops! Next month, I will be better - I promise!

In the past month, Wyatt has...
...celebrated Thanksgiving!
...attended playgroups!
...gone shopping to Target (twice!) and Kohls (once!)
...been to a couple doctors appointments.
...met and suggled with Santa!
...been held and loved by grandparents, aunts and uncles!
...graduated to 4 oz bottles.
...graduated to 0-3 month and 3 month clothing.
...had 2 shtos (one while in the hospital and the other at his one month appointment).

Weight:
At one month, Wyatt weighed 9 pounds 6 ounces.  One pound over his birth weight!  One ounce over what his big brother was at the same age!  He no longer fits into his newborn sized onesies so we knew he was growing!!  He measured at 21 3/4 inches so he is getting taller (errr longer?) too!

Food:
At one month, Wyatt is drinking mostly mommy's milk.  He also gets one (and sometimes two) bottles of formula a day.  He drinks about 3 to 4 oz in his bottles.  We just switched to the drop-in bottles as opposed to the newborn Medela bottles that we were using. 

Sleep:
At one month, Wyatt is still sleeping lots!  He has lots of awake time followed by lots of sleeptime.  He is waking up twice a night.  I usually try to get him asleep by 10:30 so I can go to bed.  Then he will usually sleep for about 5 hours and wakes up again around 3 or 3:30.  After that, he is up every 2 to 3 hours.  He loves to nap on his belly whether its on a person or in the boppy.  At night, he sleeps in the pack-n-play in our room.  He wakes up sooner if we lay him flat on his back.  Sometimes he will sleep in the swing.  He doesnt like it to be turned on though!

Playtime:
At one month, Wyatt is very alert!  He loves to be held though and doesnt care much for the swing or bouncy chair.  He likes to lay his back and wiggle and kick.  He can see things in front of him and will track things and people with his eyes.  He has never cried in the bathtub.  Loves it!  He only cries when you take him out of the tub!





Happy 1 month little guy!
