Sam Hardy | One Month

My big boy turned one month old on Monday. First month is gone already. It makes me sad to think how fast this first year will go…but I'm excited for his new milestones. 

Sam is a champ at eating. He eats every 2 hours…if not more. Day or night…2 hours and this boy is looking for milk. I asked his Dr if that was "normal", which it is of course. But IV didn't seem to eat this much…or maybe he did, I'll have to look in my notes. 

Regardless, Sam is gaining weight and growing like crazy. His official one month stats are:

Weight: 12lbs 13.4oz

Height: 23"

Head 41cm

He's in the 97th and 98th percentile for height and weight. His head, of course, is off the charts…much like big bros was. 

Sam is such a lover. He loves to be held and if he could, he'd sleep on me every chance I got. He's currently in a wake, eat, play, sleep schedule and I love it. His longest nap is 2 hours and that starts around 1:00…which just so happens to be IV's nap time. I'm not complaining…at all. 

Ginormous is the word the Dr used to describe him…and he is. But he's also so strong. At 2 weeks, Sam rolled over. He has since gone belly to back and back to belly. Crazy is the only word to describe it. I don't feel like I have a newborn baby. He's well into 3-6 month clothes and quickly moving into a size 2 diaper. 

I just love this sweet sack of sugar and I cannot wait to see him continue to grow.
