One Month Old







Avery Reese had her one month check-up Friday morning. She is steadily growing....she is now 9 lbs and 4 oz and 21 1/4 inches long. She is in the 50th percentile for both weight and length. Our doctor answered our many "new parent" questions and said Avery Reese is very healthy. We (me, Brad and Dr. Davis) believe Avery Reese has acid reflux, so she is taking 2 different prescription medications one is 3x a day while the other is 2x a day. Brad and I are just trying to remember which one to give when......whew!
We had a great weekend. My mom came down for a visit, which is always a good time. On Saturday we had many visitors...my mom, Grandma Judy, aunt Katie and her boyfriend Dylan. We hung out, watched Avery Reese sleep and played Wii. Both of the grandma's babysat Avery Reese while Brad and I stole away for our first date since her arrival. It was much easier for Brad than me. We only went down the street to a nice Italian resturant, but I was tempted to call the house several times, but Brad stopped me. We had a nice evening out...I even had a glass of wine!! And Avery Reese was just fine when we got home, as were the grandma's.

On Sunday Avery Reese was quite the vocal baby, which helped when my mom had to say good-bye :) Sunday evening Brad's dad and step-mom came over to celebrate a belated Christmas and spend some time with their granddaughter. It was a good, but busy weekend, I am so glad Brad had the day off today.
