Has It Already Been A Month?

We'll refrain from using the old cliche about "time flies..." and just say that Veronica is growing up fast.

At one month old, she is 23 inches long and weighs 9 pounds and 13 ounces. That's an inch-and-a-half taller and 10 ounces heavier than she was on Sept. 19.

As for the comparison to her sisters at one month old, judge for yourself:



Clockwise from top right: Lauren, Olivia, Julia, Emily.

Lauren was still in the hospital at one month, recovering from surgery after being born with fetal hydrops (a serious condition in which the fetus becomes extremely swollen due to buildup of fluids in the body tissues). She spent 40 days in the NICU at Children's Hospital.

It would also appear that Olivia wins the award for "most hair" though it hardly resembles the blonde locks she sports now.
