The 2.5 week check up.

Aiden went in for his 3 week check up, early (2/10/09), and we were glad to hear that he now weighs 7 lb 14.5 oz. He gained more than 14 oz in 7 days. Great news! However, he is still very low in his national percentile rankings (all less than 33%). He may be small but at least he is not out of proportion in any direction he grows. This makes him look good. :-) Aiden grew 0.75" in the same 7 day period. A growth spurt! 

What makes this 2.5 week checkup so funny is it was on the day he was allegedly due. Kinda weird sitting in the doctors office with a human being that was not supposed to arrive until that day.

We received lots of advice when everyone found out we were having a baby. Breast feed (and watch your child become President), let them cry it out, you will find out now, I told you so, etc. We can only say one thing about having a child. Your life will never be the same again.

Congratulations to the Morton's! Please reference the above paragraph. :-)
