Bailey's One Month Snapshot

Weight: 10 pounds, 1 ounce (50th percentile)
Height: 23.25 inches (90-95th percentile - he's tall but they might have been a little generous with this measurement)
Head Circumference: 14.75 centimeters (25th percentile)


We have been so blessed in Bailey! Not only is he as healthy as can be but he is such a sweet tempered, tolerate, laid-back baby boy. This is exactly as we ordered him but we have reserved delivery confirmation until now because Ainsley became very challenging and fussy at about the 3 week mark when she was diagnosed with reflux. But Bailey is now almost 5 weeks old and is still as chill as the day he arrived and for that we are so, so grateful!


Looks Like: Most people have said that he looks like Ainsley although to me he is developing much more of a masculine appearance. He has George's chin and my nose... but other than that he is all Bailey at this point. Although recently he has lost almost all of the hair on the top of his head while still having plenty around the sides... but I'm not going to say who he resembles on this one. :)


Likes & Dislikes: Bailey really seems to like almost everything. He loves the bath, his paci, and warm snuggles from mommy and daddy. He coos at his mobile and after he eats (if he hasn't already dozed off), loves to stretch and kick, and is very patient with his sister's "gentle" hugs, kisses, and pats. The only thing that really seems to frustrate him at this point is the nasal congestion he gets in the early morning. The Dr. says his nasal passages aren't big enough yet which leaves him snorting, snoring, and sneezing in order to breathe usually around 5am. I feel so bad for the little guy because there isn't much I can do to make things better on him... its just a waiting game.


Funny Memory: During one of his firsts baths we had the baby bath tub sitting on the counter in the bathroom that him and Ainsley share. Although he hasn't been too much of a "sprayer" thus far, as soon as I put him in the bath tub he promptly peed a direct arch right into Ainsley's toothbrush cup! Then of course Ainsley, who was "helping", starting asking to brush her teeth. "Brush teeth. Brush teeth." :)

We love you Bailey!! Thank you for being our sweet little boy!
