One-month stats

Carly was 8 lbs 12 ounces at her one month weight check! That's almost two pounds bigger than her birth weight, in only four weeks, which figures to half a pound a week! To me, that is huge. They didn't check her length but I can tell she's a LOT longer, because her newborn pants fit now and she is actually too long for a couple of outfits.

This morning she smiled at me for the first time on purpose. She makes a lot a smiley-looking faces when she's awake and happy, but never did it while looking at me (or anyone). So I guess we can call this her first deliberate smile!
