1 month old!




He was over our little photo shoot at his point!
It is hard to believe our little guy is already 1 month old!  We had his check up and he weighs 8 pounds 7 ounces now (16th percentile) and is 22 inches long (68th percentile).  His weight for his length is only in the 3rd percentile...never would have guessed we would have a long and skinny baby!  We took photos of him on the chair in his room with his alligator that Ben and Zach gave him in the hospital.  We will try to take photos here every month so you can see how much he changes from month to month.

Newborn Photos

He loved being outside!


Aggie outfit :)

Sweet baby
Bailey posed nicely for the photos as well...

Janet was in town helping us so our photographer got a few good ones of her with Matthew too!

He slept for most of the photo shoot so we had trouble getting any with his eyes open!
We had Matthew's newborn photos taken at our house when he was 6 days old.  We love how they turned out.  These are some of our favorites!
