Noah at 1 Month

Our first month with Noah has been fun, exhausting, overwhelming, etc. All the things that new babies bring to a home.

The poor guy had some pretty bad jaundice, so (as mentioned in a previous post) we ended up having to put him on a bili-blanket. Luckily, this worked within the first 24 hours to start bringing his bilirubin levels down and we were no longer receiving our daily visits from the home health care nurse to take the poor little guy's blood.

Noah does a lot of sleeping, staying true to his Valenzuela heritage ;). Noah did well with sleeping from day one, and already only gets up once in middle of the night to feed, giving us a good three and a half hours or so of sleep at a time.

He also does a lot of eating. Pretty sure this trait comes strong from both sides of the family.

We're pretty sure he's the cutest baby EVER, but we might be slightly impartial.

So, this is Noah at about 1 week old...


And here is Noah at the end of the month (looking less yellow!)...
