Poor Drew

The four of us went to the pediatrician for Drew's 2 month check up. He did not like being weighed or measured AT ALL. Drew weighs 10 pounds 5 ounces and measures 21 1/2 inches. He is in the 10th percentile for weight and the 5th percentile for height. These measurements are on the standard growth curve NOT the preemie one. So although Drew has grown enough to graduate from the preemie scale, he is still a little bitty on the standard one. That's okay, he has his whole life to grow big...we are enjoying our little bitty baby while we can. :) Drew loved the doctor.  He didn't fuss during the whole exam. The doc was super impressed with Drew's neck and shoulder muscles. Sam told him it's because he drinks muscle milk. :) The doc said Drew's umbilical hernia is getting smaller and should go down soon. That was the case with Sam...somewhere between 3 and 4 months. Drew passed all his developmental tests with flying colors. He was so brave during the shots. Nick was near his head calming him while Sam talked to him. Thank goodness they were there. I would have been a mess if I had been there alone.  Drew has been extra pitiful this evening.  We're keeping him close to make sure he does well through the night. Poor little buddy!
