One Month Old

Max turns one month old this week. He has had a very busy month so far. He is getting very big and has already outgrown his horse outfit - it was one of his favorites. At the two week check up he had gained over a pound and weighed 7lbs 1 oz. The doctor was amazed at how strong he is. From the time he came home from the hospital he has been able to hold his head up and has a very strong grip. It's a good thing he is so strong because he does not like tummy time very much. Usually after a few minutes of tummy time he gets mad and wants to be done with it. He is beginning to focus on people and things and likes to look at his surroundings. Some of Max's favorite activites include eating (a lot), sleeping, watching his mobile go around, listening to music, reading books and swinging in his swing. We have had a couple of big outings in the past week and he handled them very well. He even got to go to mom's school and meet the staff and students. Below is a video of Max and his mobile.
