Just look at those chubby cheeks. You can tell she is a good eater. I took her to the Newborn Clinic (we were able to make it after all) and she weighs 10 pounds 6 ounces. It makes sense that many of her 0-3 month clothes are fitting perfect now. Next week they probably won't fit anymore. It's so funny - because at one week they were falling off of her and now she is going to outgrow them already. They grow so fast. I also meaured her length today (still the same 22.25) and head (now 15".)
So, I wanted to figure out just what percentile she was in for everything and I found this site that will calculate it. At birth she was in the 95th percentile for length, between 25th&50th percentile for weight, and 75th percentile for head circumfernce. Now at one month she is is between 50th&75th percentile for length & weight and 50th percentile for head circumference. So, it seems like she is right in the middle of everything at one month old.

Oh! She smiled for daddy for the first time today. I think he was a little jealous that she started smiling for me on Saturday.
Yeah, she looks freakishly long in that first pic. It must be the angle or something.
I think she's storing acorns in her cheeks or something. They're huge! And her head, it's always so shiny.
I really appreciated her smiles this morning, 'cuz I was pretty frustrated wtih her. I changed her, then she was suddenly really happy so I tickled her a bit and she smilled. Did it twice, too. It was fun.
What a cutie! Happy one month!
The nurses at the newborn clinic said her shiny skin was a good thing. I guess she owes that to the oily genes she got from her father.
