2 week checkup

@2:50 pm in Adam Add comments

Just got word from Jen that Adam’s 2 week checkup went great. He packed on another 10 or 11oz in the past week and is up to 10lbs 12oz. According to Jen the doctor said “he’s a big boy” and was surprised when she looked at the paper to find that this was only his 2 week checkup. She initially thought he was 2 months!!

His lack of pooping and occasional discomfort weren’t a concern for her at this point. She wants to wait a few weeks to let Jen’s milk flow stabilize and to let things settle a bit more (Jen can probably provide a more accurate description).

I do however have his recent stats. He’s 75th percentile for height and head size and 97th percentile for his weight. What a bruiser, huh? He’s going to be bigger than Alex and Avery in no time!

Aunt Ann from Arizona has been staying with us all week and helping out with stuff around the house, the kids, etc. She is such a great help and has really made this week a nice and easy one for Jen, which definitely helps with the recovery, etc. She returns home this Saturday and will be greatly missed!

Other friends and family will visit over the next week or so, hopefully providing help all through next week too. Keep checking back in the April album for more pictures. I think we have some that need to be uploaded from the computer. I’ll try to get them up tonight or tomorrow.

    Oh My God!
    He’s huge! Look at those hands! They look like they belong to a 2 year old child! Yes, he will be a very big boy! I think you better get Alex and Avery some weights and tell them to start working out!
    You guys have some beautiful children.

    Hi Guys!
    I was hoping to see a new picture of Adam and what a great one! He is such a handsome little guy! I hope you & the twins are adjusting well to have a newborn in the house. Can’t wait to see all of you!
    Lots of Love & Best Wishes,
