One Month Old!

Luke turned one month old on June 7th!  June 7th was my actual due date, he just decided to come exactly one month before his due date.  He is still in Newborn diapers and clothes for the most part.  0-3 clothes are still pretty big on him.  I have a feeling he is going to start catching up though.

 

His stats for one month are:

Height:  20.0 and 2.27% percentile

Weight:  7.38 pounds and 1.11% percentile

Head:  14.0 and 10.3% percentile

 

His likes are: 

being held

eating

being swaddled

his soothie paci

 

His dislikes are:

having a dirty diaper

getting a diaper change

cold hands touching him

being startled

baths

not being picked up fast enough (cue deafening screaming)

hiccups

his swing (does not enjoy it)

 

It seems like he has been here forever.  Garrett loves to hold him and Ty does for about 10 seconds.  His first 2 newborn screenings came back abnormal due to human error and finally got the 3rd one done and everything came back perfect.  His poor little heal has been stuck about 20 times from the NICU and newborn screenings.  He also got the all clear from the eye doctor last week that his eyes were in perfect shape.  There is definitely a lot more things to go through with a preemie than a full-term baby.

 

He is perfect and we are so glad that he has completed our family.
