One Month Checkup

Ellie is one month old and doing great! She's starting to smile a bit and is definitely growing! At her checkup today she weighed in at 10lbs, 5oz! (90th %) and was 21 1/2 inches long (50th %). We're getting slightly longer stretches of sleep and she loves bath time :) We're hoping that we have escaped the colic that plagued her sister--keep your fingers crossed. So far she's much quieter and easier than Mia was at this point, but I think a lot of that has to do with first time parent panic that we had with Mia. This time we know that the crying will stop and the sleep will come, eventually.

Here are some silly pictures of her with her baby cheeks really starting to fill out! Her hair is getting redder too. I have no idea who she looks like but some people have mentioned the Weller side of the family...? Red hair runs in the McBride side, so who knows?
