What a cutie! If I do say myself.

Here is a little bit about Noah is up to:

~ Height: 22.25 inches (15th %tile)

~ Weight:11 lbs (25th %tile)

~ He is sleeping great, 9.5 hours last night. That is the longest to date, I hope it continues, of course. He usually sleeps at least 6 hours. He sleeps most of the morning and is a bit fussy in the evenings.

~ He is wearing size 0-3mo clothes and size one diapers

~ He is smiling and cooing

~ He gets about 100 kisses from Evie a day

~ He loves the swing and bouncy seat. The big two love to push him in the swing or bounce him in the bouncy.

~ He is nursing every 2.5-4ish hours during the day

~ He loves the turtle mobile

~ He is happy and content most of the time. Tags along easily with whatever the rest of us are doing. Easy going little guy. We love him more each day.

Thin Mints

The favorite Girl Scout cookie....thin mints. At least it's my favorite.
Did you know you can easily make a knock off that taste just a delicious? It's true, you can! And it only take 2 ingredients.

Ritz crackers
Andes mints (although I think one could probably use any chocolate mint, or dark chocolate and mint extract)

There are many recipes online, not that you really need a recipe.

Just melt the chocolate candies inthe microwave, place a cracker in the chocolate, flip with a fork, transfer to wax paper. Wait until the chocolate hardens again, enjoy!

I bought 4 boxes of Andes and made about 60 cookies.

Sharing

Our big two share a room....and sometimes a crib.

1 Month Old Today

Our baby boy is already 1 month old today. He has changed so much, times sure does fly by.


Here is what Noah is up to:

Height: 20.25 inches ( 10th%tile)
Weight: 8 lbs 15 oz (25th%tile)



Noah is wearing newborn and 0-3 months. He has grown out of the premee and some of the smaller newborn outfits. He is wearing size 1 diapers.

He is nursing anywhere from 2.5 to 4 hours the day. And anywhere from 2.5 to 7-8 hours at night. He has been a bit fussy, mainly after feedings and at night. We got a prescription for Zantac today to help if he is having some reflux issues, which I think he is. Hopefully our little one will be a bit more comfortable now.



He has a bit of baby acne right now and I think he is starting to lose his hair. He loves being held and especially walked around. He is starting to be more alert and awake.

Jacob and Evie love him to pieces. He gets LOTS of kisses from Evie. It's just about the cutesy thing ever! Jacob likes to look at him and asks to hold him occasionally.



Overall we are all doing well. I don't feel nearly as sleep deprived as I did with the other 2. But I also have not spent the whole day with all 3 by myself, or gone out with all 3 by myself either. Not quite sure how I am going to manage getting everyone in and out of the car. Guess time and practice will tell
