Wow! That's a BIG boy

Today, Jack had a doctors appointment. Just a check up though nothing concerning. Well, we first got him weighed. Of course he had just eaten and so therefore.. he needed a diaper change and than got weighed... he weighed in a 9lbs 15 oz.
Now take into account that a week and a half ago he was only 8lbs 3oz. So, needless to say he eats like a tanker and the boob feeding is going well.

He has also grown a half inch. He is now 21 1/2 inchs long. after getting all checked out and exposing his little man parts to the air he decided to pee again however this time it was on the doctors table.. so we had a little/big puddle to work with. So, two diapers changed within 30mins. Yahoo! Welcome to our life.. feed... poop...change... repeat all day long! lol. We love the quality time together.

Than the worst part was to get poked in the foot for some test. He screamed bloody murder and just looked at me. It was so horrible and just held him and tried to settle him down. Not a happy camper. However after all the screaming he tired himself out and went to sleep. That is so horrible though. I don't like it at all.

No worries though we survived and all is well.

That I think would be the hardest thing to do as a mom, stand by and watch as your baby gets poked and such. I'm glad he is doing well and growing fast!

I have to say the shots and all the poking is the hardest. I think half the time I cried right along with both my kids. Just an fyi. When Lucas was born he peed 3 times on the nurses when they were trying to clean him up. The doctor said "Little boys are never empty" we laughed and then we got prepared. I am happy to say Nick is the only one in this family who ever got squirted.
