Christian's 2 week well baby

Christian had his two week well baby check-up on Monday(technically he was 18 days) and everything looks great. It seems that things were much more serious during delivery/birth that I had originally thought, but all in all, everything seems to be okay with Christian. The doctor is not too worried about any long term effects since Christian's apgar scores increased after the 10 minute mark. The score was 4 at birth, then 7 then 8 after 10 minutes.

Here are Christian's stats:

Weight:
Birth Weight: 7 lbs 15.9 oz
2 days: 7 lbs 9.4 oz (43.55%)
18 days: 9 lbs 1.9 oz (52.45%)

Height:
Birth Height: 19.69" (50.17%)
2 days: 19.69" (50.17%)
18 days: 22.25" (90.20%)

HC:
Birth HC: 13.19" (13.39%)
2 days: 13.19" (13.39%)
18 days: 14.49" (36.55%)

I can't believe little man is growing an ounce a day! He changes every day and is just the sweetest baby ever! He only cries when he is hungry or just wants to be held. He is bed sharing with us and sleeps much better this way. I love have both my boys on either side of me.

Christian enjoys his swing, looking at faces, playing with Ashton on the play mat and just cruising around on someones shoulder. We are so lucky!
