Madelyn went to the doctor this morning for her 1 month check up. She weighs 9 lbs and is 22 inches long. (She only weighed 7 lbs, 13 oz just 12 days ago!) She is growing so fast! The doctor said she is in the 50th percentile in weight and the 75th percentile in length. Everything is right on track! She had to get her second round of Hepatitis B shots....I think mommy cried more than Madelyn did :( 
Dr. Naylor said that Madelyn is ready to be put on an official schedule so we are attempting to begin that today. I'm supposed to feed her every 2 1/2- 3 hours during the day and let her sleep as long as she wants throughout the night. We'll see how the new feeding schedule goes...she's been wanting to eat every hour lately, so we might have a fussy baby until she gets used to longer periods between feedings.

That's all I've got for now! 4 days 'till our trip home!!!
