James had his weight checked at the doctors' office today, and he's up to seven pounds, two ounces! I normally abhor the use of exclamation points but feel that several might be warranted after James's wild success in weight gaining. Breast feeding can work! Yay!
I was particularly relieved as this was the first weight check when we hadn't been keeping careful track of exactly how many ounces James was eating. Those of you who know me will be shocked by this, but I was worried. ;) He is a thin baby, and after what happened during his first few days, I was so scared that he might be losing weight again. But perhaps he just has his father's metabolism. Either way, this is cause for celebration in our house. Patrick is out getting KitKats so that we can celebrate properly. I hope all of you guys have a good day too. :)

Kit Kat celebration sounds fabulous :) So wonderful to know that he's putting on weight.
Thank you for all the posts - until the day when I can finally meet the little man it's good to hear all the gossip!
The wrist wrinkles would seem to belie your "thin baby" description -- but what do I know?
