It's been a month already?

Gwendoline Celeste turned one month old a few days ago, on September 26. Time has flown by so fast, but has gone really slowly at the same time. I can't believe how much Gwendoline has grown in such a short period of time and how fast the days turn into evening and night. But I'm also really tired; so is Jeph. So while time seems to be moving quickly, it's as though through a drowsy fog. I know all new parents feel this way, and I also know that it passes! We definitely look forward to more sleep in the near future.

Gwendoline had her one month check up last week and has some new stats to share with you:
  • Weight: 8 lbs, 12 ozs (32nd percentile) 
  • Height: 21.3 inches (54th percentile) 
  • Head circumference: 14.5 inches (56th percentile)- what a smart, juicy brain!
  • Overall development grade from Dr. Newton: A+
We've also had several firsts over the last couple of weeks:
  • First mommy-milk bottle so dad could participate in nourishment
  • First night in her own room and crib, made easier on mommy's heart and emotions with a video monitor 
  • First blow-out diaper, which happened while snuggling with daddy (whew!)
  • First meeting with her twin cousins, Parker and Presley, forming the Kryzak "triplets" 
We look forward to another month of stellar development and firsts!

Happy one month of life, Sweet Gwendoline!
