1 Month!

I can't believe it has been one month already!!!  Mommy did an unofficial weigh-in at 11.5lbs and 22in, though by the ever-shrinking size of his onesies, I'm sure he is longer than he was 2 weeks ago.  The size 1 diapers are getting small, as are the 0-3 month clothes.  Jonah still eats on a varied schedule, usually every 2-3 hours during the day with a 4-5 hour stretch overnight.  The end of his sleep cycles usually include an hour or so of grunting, throat-clearing, and other heinous glutteral sound that only he can sleep through.  It isn't uncommon to find him with his hands completely free of the swaddle and fist in his mouth.
He is now very adept at the cobra during tummy time - he pushes up on his arms and lifts his head to full vertical.  Rolling over is getting more difficult with the extra pounds, but he can still succeed at times when he doesn't give up half way upon realizing that laying on his side isn't so bad.  He is also tracking objects with his eyes in all directions, but he prefers to look at lights.
