Fourteen Ounces in One Week

We were asked to take Madeline back to her pediatrician so that she could have a weight check. The doctor was concerned about her weight: she was 7lbs 2ozs at birth, but she weighed significantly less than that when we brought her home. By the time she had her first exam last week, she only weighed 6lbs 10ozs.

Never fear, for her weight yesterday came in at a whopping 7lbs 8ozs, which is a net gain of 14 ounces in one week. That's almost an entire pound. I'm impressed, frankly. At this rate, she'll be fully grown in about three months.

In other news, Stephen's birthday is next Wednesday. He'll be turning two, officially. I say "officially" because he's been acting like a two year-old for several months now. I'll be going out a little later to do some birthday shopping for the boy, and we'll be officially celebrating his big day tomorrow (along with his grandma's birthday, which is actually today).

So, happy St. Pat's. Everyone be safe, and eat some green bagels...
