One Month

Holden was one month old on March 24th! He had his second pediatrician appointment with Dr. Rubenstein. He met all of the developmental milestones for his age and had gained 2 pounds! He weighed 9 pounds exactly and measured 21 3/4 inches long. He is in the 25th percentile for his head size and length, and in the 50th percentile for his weight. We're so proud of our growing boy!! He had to receive one immunization shot for Hepatitus B. He took it like a champ!

The developmental milestones we're looking for in the next month are:

• better head control
• following our movements with his eyes
• moving his arms and legs equally
• social smile
• may bat at things awkwardly

Holden is not smiling socially yet, but he smiles in his sleep. Here he is smiling away in Michelle Conley's arms while he sleeps.
