One Month

Gavin is one month old today. He weighs 8 lbs.13 oz. and is 21 inches long. He gained a little over two pounds this month and grew two inches. Of all three of our boys, he was born the smallest but he is now the biggest at the one-month mark. He nurses well; he just likes to take his time and doesn't want to be rushed. He typically nurses every three hours, including at night. Adam and Matt enjoy playing with him. Generally he just stares at them with a look on his face that says, "I'm not so sure about you". He is definitely more alert now and we can tell he's thinking things. He still has lots of brown hair, although the roots look lighter than the ends. His hair has a natural mohawk and is quite wispy. We think his eyes are going to be blue. We don't see any brown in them. He has started to find his thumb and likes to suck on it. He may be our first thumb-sucker. Most of the time he has a calm disposition, but if he's hungry or tired, he can put up a real fuss.
