The Mossy Tree: February 2013

1 Month

Ryan is officially one month old and I cannot believe how fast this month has flown by. Over the last month Ryan has started to stay awake more during the day, follow people and items with his eyes, and he has started giggling. He loves to play, eat, and of course sleep. On the eve of his one month birthday he slept for 7 straight hours! I am certain we don't need to get used to this too soon. :) Ryan went to the pediatrician on Monday, February 18th and he weighed 9lbs 13oz and was 21 inches long. We don't have another dr visit until April so he has a lot of time to grow before the next weigh in. Ryan is a happy baby, although we battled a few days where he was fussy. After changing formula, bottles and the amount of time between feedings we got rid of the fussiness. Ryan loves being with his daddy in the evenings and is really adjusting to life with us. Below are some pictures of Ryan on his 1 month birthday.

Our first month with Ryan has been fabulous and we look forward to watching him learn/grow in the future!

One week in and loving life!

We have been home for a little over a week and things are finally settling down. Barry, Ryan and I are finally getting into our own routine and figuring out what works for our little family. We enjoyed having people stay with us and have enjoyed all the visitors. Ryan is doing well and has adapted to his new home. The dogs love him and have already become very protective of him.

Last Thursday Ryan had his first pediatrician appointment at Huntsville Pediatrics with Dr. Klemm. His weight was back up to 8lbs 4oz and Dr. Klemm was pleased. We have our 2 week appointment this Thursday and look forward to see more of a weight gain. Below are some pictures from our first week with Baby Ryan!
