On Monday, we went to the peditrician for a weight check and Andrew was back up to 9 pounds 3 ounces! We had to schedule another weight check for Thursday to make sure he was still gaining. Yesterday he was back up to his birth weight of 9 pounds 7 ounces!
This week has been a big week for Andrew. Daddy gave him his first bottle on Tuesday. We started with one ounce and low expectations. He chugged that down, so I heated another ounce. He tanked that down, too! I should point out that he had previously eaten every hour for the previous couple of hours, too. (I think this might be how he gained 4 ounces in two days.)
Wednesday night and last night he slept for a five hour stretch each night! Four consecutive hours of sleep is wonderful! Let's hope this continues.
Today Andrew, Kinnick and I went on a walk and enjoyed a beautiful, sunny morning before it got too hot. We were almpst back to the car when it started raining. Kinnick planted it and wouldn't go any further. I covered up Andrew, but couldn't get him in the car if Kinnick wouldn't move. I finally got him to go, but then Andrew started crying as he was getting wet by the cold raindrops. Needless to say, I got them both in the car, but it was quite the debacle.
