Isaiah's first month

And what a month it's been! We got off to a rocky start with Noah and Eli getting sick, and Isaiah's poor weight gain, but his first month ended pretty good!

Isaiah had gotten down to 5 lbs 4 oz, and wasn't gaining as quickly as they'd like. By his 2 week check up he had made it back up to 5 lbs 11oz, which was still a half pound under birth weight. I think the final count for Isaiah's trips into the doctor/hospital for his weight issues was 8 trips in the first month!

Yesterday he had his FINAL weight check and was a whopping 6 lbs and 15 oz, so little man is finally on the right track.

While he still looks like a teeny tiny newborn, he has still changed quite a bit this past month. His cheeks are starting to fill out, and he's definitely getting longer. He's still a sleepy guy, but he is having more alert times. He is sleeping pretty well at night. He just wakes up once, but is a night owl (like Noah) and usually doesn't go down for bed until close to midnight.

So that's that! We are looking forward to his first Christmas in a few days! And excited to see what the next month brings. Hopefully we will see his first social smile, and maybe his first coo in his second month :)
