March 5th

Adin had a pediatrician appointment today. He weighs a whopping 6 lbs 4 oz!! That's a growth of 6 ounces in just 4 days!! He was also roughly 19 inches long. When his new stats were put on the growth chart his head circumference is on the curve for typical babies while his height and weight are below the curve. On the preterm curve his stats look great! I also made sure to get a shot of Adin's shoulder while he was close to nakey in the ped's office to show how hairy it still is :)

 This ped's appointment was not only to get updated stats but also to get the 2nd Hep B shot. He did pretty well with the whole appointment, of course some crying after the shot, but this next picture had me cracking up. Once he was in the car seat this was the face he gave me. I thought it was priceless given that he just had been traumatized.
 It's just amazing how much he grows each day! His face is looking older! I talked with my friend Stacey after this appointment and made a statement regarding how huge he is - she reminded me that her daughter had 2 lbs on him at birth! He's still so little :)

 Jesse and I keep saying how much we need to get pictures of us with him. Every time we are around someone else we put in a plug for taking pictures of us with him. However it never gets done because we are all distracted by the little nugget. So, I decided to just start taking pictures. No time like the present to document a moment!

















 And again, he just looks older! Wow!

    1. Isn't that hysterical! A picture of just him makes him look like a normal baby, then you see him with a person and you realize how truly tiny he is! Also, a friend keeps reminding me how tiny he is by telling me that her daughter was 8 lbs at birth
