Doctor doctor, give me the news...



We went for our first well visit today with Dr. Brooks this morning and everything with Christopher looks good. They took his measurements and weight and then checked his eyes, ears, and mouth (which he opened wide with a nice cry!). He gained another ounce so he's up to 8 pounds. We go back again next week for a weight check but that's it for now. Daddy went back to work today after the appointment so we'll see if he survived when he comes home tonight. For the past 3 nights, Chris has been sleeping pretty well (2 to 2 1/2 hours at a time in between feedings) but he wanted to make sure Brian remembered what a newborn is all about last night by having me do marathon feedings interspersed with crying fits that required Brian's use of the hairdryer. He didn't really want to go to his first day back at work on a good night's sleep, did he?
