First Month Checkup

Shawn Jr. had his first month checkup last Monday on the 21st. He's in great health and getting bigger everyday. At his visit he weighed 11lbs and 7ozs and still 21 inches long. He is in the 90% with his weight and 30% with his height. That night I followed the advice of his pediatrician to put him in his crib when it was time for him to sleep. We were letting him sleep in our arms or putting him in a bouncy with the vibration on. It was the only way he'd fall asleep. It was complete torture for Shawn and I. He just kept crying and wouldn't stop. We maybe got two hours of sleep. So the following evening Shawn Jr. slept from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. It was amazing! He hasn't slept that long since then but he has gotten more used to sleeping in his crib.

Here are some recent pictures of him!
