Doctor's Appointment

Isaac went to the doctor today for his one month checkup. They always make the poor baby get naked so they can weigh him. Thankfully this time I remembered a blanket.

Everyone said how good he was. He didn't cry at all when I placed him on the scale or on the desk to measure him. He didn't cry when he got his temperature taken.

He got a shot today, and he only cried for three seconds. It's official: he's an angel. ♥ Honestly, though, he did really well. I thought he would scream his head off after the shot, but nope. :)

His measurements:

Weight: 9 lbs (18th percentile)
Length: 20 3/4 inches (10th percentile)
Head circumference: 36 1/2 cm (10th percentile). Now to me, he has a huge head, but apparently it's normal.


The doctor said he is growing exactly on target compared to where he was last visit.

And he got a Scooby Doo band-aid!!
He spent a lot of time sleeping after we got home:

Check out that outfit! I found another Christmas outfit at Target! I bought two - the other one is all red and says "My first Christmas" on it... he'll wear that on Christmas Day. I bought newborn size though, and I wonder if it will fit him. I might try to get back there within the next week and buy the next size up. He's still gaining an ounce a day, so he'd be 10 lbs right around Christmas. Can a 10 pound baby fit into a newborn sleeper? :)
