This last month has gone by so fast, yet it seems like we have had him here for forever! All around Henry has been such a sweet easy baby. But compared to Sloane as a newborn i feel like anything would feel easy haha. The transition from 1 to 2 kids has been much easier than the transition from 0 to 1. We have for sure had our fair share of struggles. Mostly trying to keep Sloane entertained and trying to do things 1 handed haha! Henry is doing great and at 1 month old he weighs just over 9 lbs. He is a great little eater and a pretty good little sleeper. He still is sleeping a lot durning the day and is giving us 3 to 4 hour stretches at night. He wakes up just to eat then goes right back to sleep which is super doable!
We recently learned that he has something called Ptosis in his right eye. I noticed since he was born that he just wouldn't really open that eye as much so i took him to the doc and thats what he said it was. Basically his right eye lid doesn't have very strong muscle or no muscle at all to lift his lid all the way. As long as his lid isn't covering his pupil, which his isn't it should affect his vision. The doctor said that he could grow out of it or when he gets a little older he can get a surgery that will lift the eye lid. I will probably take him to a pediatric eye doctor just to see what they say about it but I actually think its pretty cute right now and thats just what makes him, him!
Even though newborns are exhausting i know that this stage will go by so fast so I'm trying to enjoy it as much as possible! We love having this sweet angel baby in our family!
