Finally past the birth weight

 

Since we left the hospital, we have been concerned about Hailey’s weight loss. At birth, she was 8lbs 15oz. At week 1, 7lbs 13oz, and from week 2, 3, and 4, she weighed in at 8 lbs 1oz. Our pediatrician was concerned, and was considering hospitalization if she didn’t gain weight by today.

She weighed in at 9 lbs today, and 22 inches long, which is a 15 ounce and 1.5 inch gain! We’re really happy that she’s on track now.

 

Here’s what you’ve all been waiting for, of course: more pictures. :)

Achoo! Ugh, I hope I don’t have daddy’s allergies.

Oh, big pouty face. The doctor said I’m too thin. What gives?

Dr. Michael App – our pediatrician. He gave me a pep talk about gaining weight right after taking this picture.

So tuckered out from the doctor’s visit, sleeping in the car.

My first visit to a restaurant with my mom, and my grandma (Sypkens)! Aren’t you proud that I didn’t scream?

My first bath! Ug, what is this stuff! Is this completely necessary, guys?

Dazed and confused.

Still dazed, but now I’m all cozy, so I’m getting over it.

 

_MG_9707

Oh man, so cozy. Eyelids are getting heavy…
