One month check-up

My how time flies! I can't believe it has already been a little over a month since Rhett has been here. His check-up was at 8am this morning and I will never do an appointment that early again. It was hard to get there!!! He is looking good though. He weighs 9 lbs. 4 oz. (25%), is 21.5 in. (50%) and his head circumference is 36.1 cm (10%). He also got his second hepatitis B vaccine and screamed, screamed, screamed! It was so sad...he even had tears running down his face!

Over the past month...
