Dr. Appt Update

On Tuesday, Liam had his one month visit with the Dr. He did wonderfully. He now weighs in at 9lbs and 13 ounces - so he has gained over a pound since his birthday. This is great news!!! He has started to get a bit of a pudgy belly which is just too cute. He also grew a bit in length so it won't be long before he is out of those newborn clothes and moving into a new set of outfits!! He will return next month to start his series of vaccinations - the Dr. says it will be harder on me than on him and I can believe it will be since I hate to see him unhappy at all.

So all in all - we are doing well. I am really enjoying being home with him and having this opportunity to be 100% dedicated to spending time with him. We miss Rich each day as he has returned full time back to work. Being the great dad we all knew he would be he gets up with him early in the morning to spend time with him before work and wants to hold him as soon as he walks in the door after work. He also does the last feeding of the evening before bed and get's Liam ready each night for bedtime. Liam and I are very lucky to have such a great and hands on Daddy!!

This weekend we are heading to Newport, RI for a night. Rich's parents are there this week on vacation and have offered for us to come and stay. The weather is supposed to be nice sunny fall weather so it will be great to get Liam some fresh air after several days of rain this week. Then at the end of next week we will be heading to Ohio for our visit with Liam's Grandparents, cousins and Aunties there! We should have some good stories to tell after the next couple of weeks of travels =)
