'One month' Appointment

Frankie had his one month appointment today at six weeks because they didn't want us coming in with H1N1, go figure! He is good on all his milestones and got his shots today, which has him mostly tired but he was not happy about it!

He weighed 11.5 lbs and was 21.5 inches long. Pretty good growth especially with all the weird sickness and extreme spitting up that he does all the time. He is 90% weight and 50% height but he doesn't look too chubs, so not sure how that works. His doctor was very happy with his growth, and he showed off his skills at holding his head up during tummy time for her too.

Evie weighed in at 37.5 lbs and 41.25 inches, so she is about average for weight for her age and a bit on the tall side, but we kind of had that figured out. She is still loving being a big sister and has been a good helper:). She did not like getting her regular flu shot--but good news Evie, since we had H1N1 no need for another vaccine this year. What a favor, right?

Other news since last post:
  • we are all healthy--hard to believe but true!
  • Frankie is very aware of his surroundings and has started to smile
  • I am allowed to try eating milk/milk products again per Mr Man's doctor. It has been kind of nice eating dairy free because I can always share with Evie...but I miss cheese. And cream pie...and ice cream...and all that other good stuff. Hopefully his stomach can take this better than it takes everything else. He is such a spitter!
We're just excited to be back on track health-wise so we can all enjoy this time--before it is gone since it goes so fast! Here are more fun pictures:
