Four Weeks / One Month Old

Sam is four weeks old today, which is also one month old since it's February.

He had his one month checkup this afternoon. He now weighs 7 lbs 13 oz (right before a feeding -- we think he would have broken 8 lbs half an hour later) and is 20.5 inches long.

Comfy Baby

Sam fell asleep on a pillow on my lap, which was fine, until I had to go to the bathroom... I didn't want to wake him up by putting him in the bassinet (as I had multiple times already today), so I just put the whole pillow in. Fits pretty well! (I know babies aren't supposed to sleep on soft surfaces but I'm right next to him so I think it's okay.)

Sam Tries to Crawl

I thought we wouldn't have to worry about this for another few months... Sam pumps his arms and legs during tummy time and actually manages to move a few inches!
