Quick Update- Emma's 2 wk appt


It went well! Luke tagged along and we took Emma in to see Dr. Bean for her 2 week Well Baby Check. She has gained a whole pound since her 2 day appt (when she was down to 6lbs8oz from her birth weight of 6lbs 15oz) and now weighs 7 lbs 8 oz! She has also grown an inch and is now 20 inches long. For those of you who care about percentiles, that puts her in the 25% for weight and 50% for length. My little girl is little! :) She is healthy in every way!

It is also worth noting that while Luke has pretty much screamed through every one of his OWN Well-Baby Checks (including his 2 year appt a month ago), he is quite happy to go with Emma to hers- which are at the same office, with the same nurses and doc. He high fives the doc and now even says he needs to "go to see Dr. Bean at the doctors office" whenever he gets the slightest of injuries. Bizarro. Luke doesn't have another appt until he is 3, at which point he will have accompanied Emma to approximately 5 more appts, so maybe he won't cry through it!

She's so pretty. And it sounds like Luke is doing a great job as big brother.

I still think she's the cutest little peanut even if she did gain a pound!
