One Month Old!

It's hard to believe that a whole month has passed already.  It has been an amazing ride  - and we were awake to enjoy so much of it!  (Thanks, Raleigh!)  To celebrate Raleigh's one-month birthday, we had pizza and wine with Johan and Liesl.

Raleigh weighs about 10 pounds now (if our bathroom scale is accurate).  He's getting more and more enjoyable every day!  He tries to bat at toys an even coos in his sleep now (they sound a little like grunts - so manly!).  He even settled into a routine, of sorts: he eats about every 2-3 hours during the day, every hour right before bed, and every 3-4 hours at night.  Leanne graduated Raleigh on to his 0-3 month wardrobe, since the newborn clothes are getting a little tight and we've already worn all the newborn clothes a few times.  It's time to start working our way through the next size!

Tuesday, Leanne had a 4 week postpartum check up.  The doctor said Leanne is doing great (especially after she realized it had only been 4 weeks, not 6).  We showed her some pictures from Raleigh's first hour of life.  The doctor asked for a 5x7 of one of them - it's not just going on the wall, but in a frame of it's own, since Raleigh is so special! :)

Happy birthday, Little Man.  We can't wait to see what you have in store for our little family next month!
