Today is Nate’s 1 month birthday. We celebrated by taking him to the pediatrician for his 1 month visit. His statistics are
11 pounds, 9 oz – 95th percentile
23 inches long – 90th percentile
I forget his head measurement but it is the 75th percentile.
So big boy, over 2 pound weight gain in one month. The exciting thing was when he smiled at the doctor. She was very impressed and said this usually does not happen until 2 months; in fact she said it twice. I can read between the lines.
Dr. says “it is very unusual for babies to social smile before 2 months, that is very good that he is doing it already”.
Dr. means “you better go ahead and fill out that preadmission form for the Ivy League schools, this boy will be studying quantum physics before most kids finish Junior High.
Happy Birthday Nate, my smiling big-little genius.

Happy 1 Month Birthday, Nate! Time sure does fly, as it seems just yesterday you had set up permanent residence in your Mommy's womb - or at least your Mommy was sure that you had.
