Faith - 1 Month
Faith is now almost the exact same size Bryce was when he was born. She is 9 lbs 5.5 oz - 50 percentile (Bryce was 9 lbs 5 oz at birth) and 22 1/4 inches - 80 percentile (Bryce was 22.5 inches at birth). Her head circumference is 14 1/4 inches. The doctor said she looks healthy. He did give us a prescription for her eyes since they still get goopie, especially in the morning. He doesn't really think there is an infection, but he said just in case it would be a good idea. He thinks more than likely her tear ducts still aren't working properly, but that by siz months they should open up and be just fine.
She is still waking up just twice a night. The last few nights she's been awake around 2 am and again around 5 am. I'm so thankful that she is a good sleeper. She has also not been fussy at night like she had been.
On her one month birthday she smiled for the first time. I tickled her cheeks and she gave me big grins over and over, and no she wasn't just gassy. It was the real deal.
She is becoming more and more alert and making lots of eye contact. She is also really strong. She pushes herself up when you hold her on her tummy against your chest and turns side to side.
Her eyes are still blue and appear to be getting lighter, so they may just stay blue.
