On December 18th, Maya was one month old. On December 19th, she was due to be born. Today, December 20th, we took her to see the pediatrician for her one month check up.

Maya – 6 days old – with Mom and Dad

When Maya was born, she weighed 5 pounds, 8 ounces. She was down to 5 pounds, 1 ounce when we left the hospital (a perfectly normal and expected weight loss). Today she weighed 7 pounds, 9.5 ounces. She’s grown from 19 to 21.5 inches long. Her doctor is very happy with her progress, and of course, so are we. We now have his blessing to let her sleep through the night if she’s willing.

We’re a bit behind on posting pictures. This set of photos are ones that Aunt Darci took when she visited over Thanksgiving. Maya is six days old in these pictures.
