Hello everyone -
I just visited the doctor again today to "weigh in". For those who didn't know - at my 4 week appt the doctor said I wasn't gaining enough weight so mommy and daddy had to start supplementing my feedings. Well - mommy decided pumping was the route to go to make sure I was getting enough to eat and when we needed to I would take formula. At my 4 week appt I weighed 6lbs 4oz. At 5 weeks I was 6lbs 12oz. Today I went in (now 6.5 weeks) and I weigh a HUGE 8lbs! Mommy couldn't believe it. She knew I had to be gaining a decent amount of weight because I have been eating every 2 hours lately. She also said I have my first roll on my legs. I think it is more of a crease - but she has never seen anything like it on my skinny body before - so she is calling it a roll :)
So - where does this put me on the charts? In the 5th percentile! I was in the 5th percentile in the beginning - but by week 4 had fallen off the chart. Now - I'm back on! YEA! Now I just have to keep it up. I can eat all I want over the holidays - what about you?
I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!
Lots of Love -
Grant

What is Aunt Sheila talking about, fatty? Sounds more like pudge, pudge is OK. If you leave it up to Aunt Sheila she will have that turned into muscle in no time. Keep growing Grant. Love Gramma K
