Zoe is one month old today, and it’s time for a quick update on how she’s changed these past four weeks. She’s grown more than two pounds and one inch (her face is much rounder than it was when she was first born), and she graduated out of “newborn” diapers last weekend. She continues to eat about every three hours (hence the healthy weight gain), occasionally going four or five hours in the night – when we’re lucky! In terms of physical milestones, she can now hold up her head on her own, and she recently started grabbing for and holding her pacifier. (She also loves grabbing on to her mom’s necklace!) Personality-wise, she’s still pretty mellow – but she cries and “talks” a lot more than she did just a few weeks ago. When she needs to be soothed, bouncing on the bed, singing or telling funny stories seems to do the trick… I haven’t seen a full-fledged smile, yet (Q thinks he has), but she certainly has had some happy faces!

To mark the occasion, I’m posting below 12 previously unposted pictures from the last four weeks. (The last two were taken a few nights ago.) These are some of my faves…which one is your favorite?
