one month

I can hardly believe that Savannah is already a month old! Before she was born everyone kept telling me that kids grow up so fast; they weren't kidding, the past month has flown by. She marked her one month 'birthday' by sleeping most of the day and meeting my co-workers this afternoon. She took a nap with James when he got home from work and then was pretty fussy for the rest of the evening. I think she must be going through a growth spurt because she couldn't decide if she was hungry or tired. We finally just decided to throw in the towel and give her a bath, seems like all she needed was that and to nurse as she calmed right down and is now all snuggly in her swaddle in daddy's arms.

Per my very techincal and scientific method of weighing her, me on the scale with her and then me on the scale without her, she is weighing in at 9.4 lbs. - an increase of 2.4 lbs. at birth. She's finally starting to get some adorable little fat rolls. We measured her over the weekend but we can't remember her exact length, somewhere in the neighborhood of 20.5 - 21 inches so she's getting a little longer too.

Getting her hair brushed by daddy, he's very particular about her hair.
