Weigh-in, Month 1

Vidya had her one-month check-up appointment today -we took a nice walk to the doctor's office, and she managed to sleep through her entire exam! She now weighs 8 lbs, 11 oz, which keeps her right on the 25%ile for weight, remaining on the same percentiale she was when she was born (which we're told is a good thing). Her height is also staying on the same curve from birth, at 55% and 22 inches long. We were sure she was becoming a hugely chubby girl and I was half-expecting her to have doubled her weight - she seems so big - but I guess I was wrong.

Going out to dinner

We ventured out to dinner with Vidya last night. She did well, and is getting used to her car seat, too.

Vidya's first stroller ride!

Our stroller arrived today and we took it out for a spin. We were worried it might be too hot for Vidya and that she'd get fussy, but she did great. She was awake most of the time, but dozed off here and there. We were out for about 25 minutes and came home just before it started sprinkling. We're so happy she enjoyed the stroller, now we feel much more portable with her!

She's getting so big!

Vidya has outgrown her strawberry outfit! It's bittersweet because it was so cute on her, but it's amazing to see how much she's grown (both taller and chubbier). She was wearing this a week and a half ago, and now it doesn't even come up to her armpits!

Vidya has also become quite a smiler!

Another baby massage

Vidya loves her massages - here Uday is exercising her joints after the oil massage.

She's a sleeper...

Vidya seems to enjoy spending all of her time either deeply asleep or very active. While the tornado sirens were blasting from across the street last week, Vidya didn't even stir, she just kept on sleeping. The week before, she slept through a horrible thunderstorm including hail and very high winds!
